Just curious if that was a mistype or if your school actually has four semesters a year?

My University has spring and fall and I am finishing up some lower division classes at a community college in the winter and the summer.

The community colleges here have winter, spring, summer, fall, 4-week, 8-week and weekend classes. And dispite all these semester offerings, classes are still in shortage.

Ok, that makes more sense. Does the community college call their four standard sessions semesters or quarters?

It's not important just semantic curiosity (since semester literally means six months long).

2006 was a challenging year (both good and not so good) and it ends with me feeling ready for the possibilities of 2007.

At work I want to continue my goal to go home on time so I can live what I consider my real life. But I have to figure out how to stop feeling like I have to push myself to the limit to get everything done. Not everything can get done (at least not by me) and I have to be okay with that.

Personally I want to spend more time taking care of things at home. I have this large but cluttered "walk-in closet" that I hope to have transformed into an actual spare room slash second bedroom by this time next year. Then when I've dealt with the clutter I might be able to paint and fix all the things that need fixing.

Most of all I want to continue the lifelong journey of becoming more myself.

The community colleges here call them semesters. They are 16 or 18 weeks depending on what school you attend. I did not know that semester means 6 months. I learned something today. YAY!
