Ethics and Global Policies: I'm pretty excited about this. For one thing, it's the most relevant of all of my classes to all of my interests- we discuss HIV, sexual orientations, church/state. The professor's sort of adorable- kind of looks like Ben Kingsley. He rambles a bit, but he's pretty cool seeming. He's also supposedly an easy grader.
P.S: Guess who sits next to me in this class? Hayley Boyle from Youth Theatre! So weird; COLLINGSWOOD IS FOLLOWING ME.
Advanced Italian: Yeah, I chickened out on this one. Also, it turns out I don't need to take a language class here, so I dropped that as fast as I could.
Intro to Italian Culture: This is what I transferred into after dropping the above class, and what I wanted to take in the first place. It's not a language class, and covers everything from art history to football to Italian movies. Excellent. It's a bit more work that most of my other classes, though- my professor makes us give presentations every week on different topics, but they're fairly low key.
Psych 101: Seems like a pretty cool class. The professor's very entertaining, and of course I've been dying to take a good Psych class. It's a bit frustrating at times because my classmates seem to have no grasp on what it means to be depressed. (They subscribe mainly to the theory that it should be treated entirely with positive thinking and pulling yourself up by your bootstraps- a theory that I find oversimplistic at best and dangerous at worst.)
Globalization: This is probably going to be my hardest class. However, I love the professor. (He also looks like a mix between Hugh Laurie and Stephen Anderson Moore, which certainly doesn't hurt matters.)
Comparative Foreign Policy: This class makes me feel smart. A lot of times I have trouble coming up with good examples/questions for my professors, but I'm feeling super good about contributing in the class. The professor is, again, this adorable Hungarian woman.
Northern Ireland: Conflict and Conflict Resolution: This is a field study trip that I'm going on next weekend (holy crap, I can't believe it's so soon!). The professor who runs it is another cool guy.
I officially booked my tickets yesterday! So excited!
