So here's the big decision. I'd like to take an art class this fall - it's been a very long time since I took any formal art direction and I'd like to get back into it a bit. Here's what I'm considering:

Beginning Formal Drawing
Pros:

• Tuesdays won't interfere with fencing, which I plan to continue
  
• I've never had the opportunity to draw from anything in life, though as a kid I could copy photos pretty well
  
• One day a week so no extensive lab hours
  

Cons:

• Seems like 8 weeks is awfully short - would I really learn anything here?
  
• I technically already know how to draw, maybe just need to get back into practice
  

or

Jewelry and Metalsmithing
Pros:

• I've always wanted to learn welding/melting/casting so I could make jewelry more elaborate than simple wire looping and hacking shapes out of sheet metal with a Dremel tool, and I never really had the time/facilities
  
• Shiny, shiny!
  
• Learn to use new materials, work in 3 dimensions
  

Cons:

• This is a community college class - includes lab time and exams
  
• Post-work hours time is on Thursdays (I think), conflicting with fencing
  

Possible con for both - they may already be filled.

So better get my butt in gear and make up my mind!
