So I'm sitting here trying to decide if I should drop my Medical Anthropology class. I cannot stand the prof. and her overtly liberal and feminist agenda, it drives me nuts (she once described the female reproductive system as "a beautiful moth". I'm all for the female reproductive system, but to describe a medical diagram of it as a "beautiful moth". Fuck off.). The dread I feel before going to class has gotten so bad that I actually feel a bit physically ill before hand. Also, ever since my mom passed away (less than 1 yr ago) I've found it very difficult to sustain my interest in my studies unless I find the classes rather interesting. I also do not need to be taking the class, its simply an elective.
I feel like I should just tough it out however. The class is pretty damn easy for a 3rd yr. course, and I've already paid for it. I hate the thought of quitting something because I don't like it, it seems like an easy way out, but I just fucking loathe this class. I also feel like I would be doing my moms memory a disservice by not completing this shit-bag of a class, she always encouraged me in my studies. I sitting here trying to think up other reasons to stick with it, but I honestly cannot come up with any more reasons for staying with it though.
I feel very conflicted about what to do and any advice would be appreciated.
