you’ll likely find an interesting class with work more fun than a boring shit of a class with no work.

One of my filler classes was Welding (MIG, TIG, and GMAW)

informatics 101. im taking that now and its a freekin joke! all they really do is tell you “this is a computer. you push this big button to turn it on. this is a keyboard. you type with it. this is a mouse…etc” and then the second half of the class is all lab time where you have to do VERY simple projects using Word, Excel, Access, and Powerpoint. its a once a week class (im taking it every thursday night from 7-9:40, but class never goes for more than 45 min lol). my teacher is Siderakis, and i would highly recommend him, he really knows his stuff and he’s really funny and makes the class very enjoyable. he’s the kind of teacher that i really like because he teaches you what you need to know, and skips over all of the useless information (litterally, he’ll stand there and be like 'uhhh, the second on page XX in the book is a load of bullshit and you’ll never need to know that so dont bother even reading it, but you should spend some time looking over the material on page XX, thats kinda important")
