I took religion and dance last term and the final project was a 15 min group dance in St. Johns chapel. That's going to be on transcript for the rest of my life omfg.

If you're fine with writing, RLGN 1440 (evil in world religions) was a 4 paper course and we had to read bram stokers dracula for one paper. Super fun course. The proff is a nerd. Same proff teachers Supernatural in Popular culture. Still a 4 paper course (about 4-5 pages) and we got to play D&D in class. I also had to write about Jediism for a paper in that course.

He did a one off course that was "Superheros and Mythmaking" and all we had to do was read comic books as our assignments and we had local artists come in all the time to talk to us about their work. More practical, FMLY 1010 is basically intro psych again, but easier (if you were fine with intro psych)

@curio I didn't even know you could do sign language as an elective!

@sm19 we kinda have stuff in common, I'm taking food and religion right now RlGN 1460, our project is based on eating food and analysing it using therapies and readings from class

@sm19 RLGN 1440 sounds cool, I heard about the class that they read comics in from my sister, and from the life of us we couldn't figure out what course it was so we could take it. I have already taken FMLY 1010 and the rest of the FMLY courses, cos my minor is in Family social sciences and my major is sociology.

@sm19 your thesis project sounds cool, when I took intro to psych I was pretty psyched (hehehe... See what is there) about doing those lab experiments for graduate students. It was fun. I know how you feel, my this semester has been super stressful I just want it to be over.

@sm19 I know it can be difficult, just try to push through and keep your head up soyo7 can finish well. Plus on campus counselling is a great place to go if you're feeling overwhelmed.

How is religion and food? Me and my friend wanted to take that this year! @curio

The proff for religion and dance was Brenda and she was so nice but oh my god I could not take it seriously. If you can take a course w/ Kenneth MacKendrick, he is a wonderfully awkward nerd.

@curio I have three tests April 5th and because they are in class tests, I don't think SAS can help me. Two are honours tests so I'm going to die.

also sports psych/b mod is super simple. Painfully simple.

@sm19 food and religion is great but there is a lot of paper writing and article reviews. So that can be stressful.

@sm19 damn!!! That's a lot in one day, just study as much you can I guess. I also have in-class debates and group presentation next week, doing a lot of multitasking to catch up.
