It looks like I need to drive 1.5hrs out of my way, just so I can get this finished. I made it a personal challenge thinking I would be able to get it done this weekend, but was redirected to the M-F crowd. Who never answer their phone. I called twice today, and let it ring for over a minute straight each time. Looks like I’ll need to stalk them hourly at the least, not that I think it will do much good. I’m pretty sure that in order to get in touch with anyone, I’ll have to drive my ass out there and haunt their office for a day. Bah!

How I did it: Momentum and steely determination. I was pursuing this goal alongside "pay down my debt"... which means I had little to no free time, no social life, and was stressed to the max. However, I will always do whatever it is that needs to be done in order to reach where I need to be. That said, I will never do this again. By that, I mean working two jobs, participating in the reserves, and having a long distance relationship all while striving… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I lived with my father, worked 6-7 days a week(2 jobs) since July, and stuck to my budget. Keeping in mind that I started school full time in August, the schedule was Hell. But it's worth it. So worth it.Now all I need to do is stay afloat, come out even through Xmas and then I can start building my savings.Exciting!Almost. I feel like my batteries are dead; I need to recharge. Perhaps next semester. Read how I did it…
Consequently, it looks like I’ll be fighting to pass my Trigonometry class. It’s a shame I have to lose my 4.0gpa, but it’s probably for the better. Oh- I do have another chance to graduate with a 4.0 regardless. Transfering from one college institution to another means that my GPA starts over at the 2nd institution.
I registered for classes next semester, it should be a really easy schedule. The only definitely hard course I’ll be taking is the second level of Chemistry.
I hope to get two A’s in my Anatomy and 1st level Chemistry, and manage a C in Trigonometry… Then a break, at long last. A break! During which there will be lots of organization. I refuse to repeat this semester.
I really haven’t been able to contact them via phone. I’ll be out that way this weekend, but I’m worried that too much time has passed already, and that I won’t be awarded it.
I guess we’ll just have to see…
