30 Day Challenge: Day 29

Imagine that you have the opportunity to travel back through time. At what point in history would you like to stop and why? (Swarthmore)

Time is priceless, and it would be shame to waste it. Everyone wastes whether they know it or not, and then cry about it because they never have the time. I have  hit my head against the wall for not using time allotted wisely, and i have also enjoyed wasting time. My global issues class has been a bad choice, not a worse choice I think. You would expect to know global issues in a global issues class. I never knew them neither did my fellow class mates except for one. I did not except to do badly in that class, I did not expect my teacher to get changed thrice. I did not expect to have a senior - senior citizen teach us, and create havoc over the smallest issues in class. If I had the chance, i would go back to the day i chose my subjects for the semester. The list would include two math courses, one English course, one or two science courses, one economics course.
 I would go back to the time I was standing in line, waiting in line to meet the counsellor, to give in the subjects I plan to take for the first semester of 2011. The semester is ending, and i feel that the classes I took have been worthless, and time consuming. I could have used that time better in the fall of 2012(that’s when school starts), and for the last six months I would have learnt Environmental Science. The subject global issues cannot be dropped since it is part of the Indian transcript, i would have faced anyways it due time, but my choice at the time for choosing subjects was bad timing.
