Two Very Interesting Courses
I am happy to say that the two courses I'm taking this semester are nothing like the two courses I took last semester, which I disliked. This time, both courses are ones which I know I will enjoy thoroughly. I will be taking classes with all three professors from the research lab that I work at. And all three of them are excellent professors.
The first class I am taking is Collaborative and Social Computing. This one is closely related to my research project, which is a type of online social community and collaborative tool. There will be a lot of reading and some projects, but I'm sure they will all be very interesting.
The second class is called Developing the Interactive Web. This will be an awesome class. And I will be able to put a lot of stuff in my resume thanks to it too! We will be working with some of the most popular frameworks and tools for developing on the web, such as Yahoo! UI Toolkit, Google Web Toolkit, Microsoft Silverlight, and Facebook Apps. That really sounds exciting.
I know both of my classes will require a lot of work, but unlike the last semester, this time it will be work I enjoy. I will probably write later on about some of the interesting things I learn and do in these classes, which I am sure will be many.

Boy you sure sound excited! But the classes do sound very interesting, and if on top of that you know you have good professors, then you're all set for a great semester. Good professors can make you enjoy even subjects you dislike. What I don't understand is how you're taking two courses with three professors... isn't there an extra professor there?

Wow, your math skills are amazing! Hehe. The reason for this is that one of the courses is taught by two of the professors. That is why I have three professors instead of two.

Classes that use different applications known today, not a bad idea. Just, I don't know any of those programs. Hmm, stuff to fill a resume, well saves you some trouble and just it all fits in one page, assuming the resume limit is still one page.
