Financial Aid!

3 confessions

So I got my financial aid approved and set. I'm really excited about it. I'm a little down at the same time because I wanted to take Greek or Latin as a language and it's not offered at my school right now. I could've sworn I saw it but I guess not :( I'll check again later, perhaps.

Today I get to speak with Doctor Uthman, a general community pathologist here in Houston. I'm pretty excited about this because I find him very interesting from his homepage. He seems well educated and respected in the community. Hopefully, if this goes well I will have found myself a great mentor. If nothing else, it'll be a great experience for me.

For the Fall semester, I took 5 classes which people are warning me may be too much at first, but I'm the type of person that needs the pressure and momentum to hold my interest so I'm hoping I can prove strong.

Mon and Wednesday are my busiest days. I'll be going to school from 8am. until 5pm. And then Tuesday and Thursday will be my earlier days. So far I have Friday/Sat/Sun off but like I said, if I can find the language class I want, I may add that if time allows.

Today is my Friday for this week. I have one more week left of my Intro to Health, class and I'm a little sad about that. I will actually miss Ms. Freeman and the class itself. I have an oral report and my portfolio is due on Wednesday then my Final on Thursday..wish me luck >.<

Registered For Fall!

1 confessions

So I registered for Fall Classes in anticipation of my student aid. I have a pretty full schedule but I think I spaced it out okay. I found that for the summer classes, I took only two classes (5 semester hours) and I was so bored :( I wanted more input..learn more..etc, etc.

However, I took heed on other students that have said that if I take too much I might be overwhelmed. I decided that I would see how it goes and if I need to, I'll drop a class.

Right now, Monday and Wednesday will be my hardest days. Mon/Wed will be Math/Biology and English and Tuesday is my history class. I actually decided to add a dance class for my elective ...hold onto your sanity...I decided to pick ballet back up. :D

So I'm really excited and I will let you know how it all goes.
