What should I expect? I started learning the alphabet and numbers yesterday just to get a small start, but otherwise I know nothing. I'm very excited to learn though, and I want to take it for a few semesters at least, if not get a minor in it!

Male, 25, 210 pounds, currently using ciprofloxacin dexamethasone for a ear infection in my right ear.

I started using the drops earlier today around 9 am. Even now, at 1, it feels like they have never drained out of my ear and I can barely hear out of the ear now. Its not painful, but it's such an uncomfortable feeling. Is there anything I can do to get the drops out? I've laid on that side practically the whole time sense and have tried massaging/pulling the outside of the ear canal to no avail.

Would post in the college subreddit, but they take down so many posts so I'm posting here even though it's not a rant.

But what's everyone's semester looking like? For mine, I'll have;

• American sign language 1

• Programming for engineering + lab

• Introduction to modern physics (basically college physics 3, introduces special relativity and talks about atoms among other things)

• Mathematical methods for physics (basically a consolidation of all the math I've learned so far but directed at physics, from calc 1-3, ODE, linear algebra, etc)

• Intermediate physics lab

• And a 1 credit physics seminar

17 credit hours total, so full schedule but not overfilled. Mondays and Wednesdays are pretty short with Tuesdays and Thursdays being long. Looking forward to getting it done.

I love my classes, I enjoy learning and I'm always excited to being 1 step closer to being done with school. However, I have to work full-time overnight while also having a full time class schedule (17 credit hours this semester). It is incredibly exhausting, and I dread being that exhausted again. I always have mixed feelings before the semester starts.

Transfering in from stark State after graduating last semester and it's starting to feel very real. I'm very excited to start my classes! Hope everyone has a great semester!

I dropped out in fall 2019 due to personal issues, mostly depression. I've hated myself since then, I was going to school for chemical engineering but I just wasn't happy. Along with other personal things going on with my life and just not liking the university I was at, I dropped out right before spring of 2020 (thankfully).

Until fall 2024, I had nightmares constantly of failing exams, doing terrible in school, etc. My family constantly asked when I was going back to school, and I was so ashamed. After talking to a friend in spring of 2024, I decided to go back to school at a community college and it was the best decision I could've made. I've made a few friends and a few professional connections related to my degree and I couldn't be happier. I'll be graduating next Sunday with a 4.0 with an associates in physics, mathematics, and a general associates degree. If I can do it, anyone can do it.
