bah...can't believe I'll be back in class next week. I also forgot the wonders of financial aid. I am so unbelievably blessed to have so many wonderful people in the multicultural office on my side and fighting for me. They have helped me avoid so many fees and yards of red tape by just doing their jobs and doing them well. I can't fully express how thankful I am.
I can't wait to stretch my mind again. I've been watching lots of historical documentaries on netflix all summer to get back into the swing of things. I downloaded the Praxis study guide for world & US history Content Knowledge, and man...I have a LOT of outside studying to do if I'm gonna pass that test. 120 questions covering ALL of world and US history. lol. That's a lot of topics to try to cover hoping you covered the right ones. might have to invest in the flashcards and study guide they offer. If I can qualify for a fee waiver (it's an EXPENSIVE test) It just might be worth while to invest $80 to help ensure I will pass the test. I need to take it before I can student teach but i don't necessarily have to pass it. However I only wanna take it once so...might as well do it right. My advisor, the one who wants to hire me after I graduate, suggested I have an active license in case an adjunt faculty position comes up; they could fight harder for me to teach a UVU course if I have a license to teach. So...I will do what I can.
Not too long ago it all seemed so hopeless. Part of me wishes I would have known how easy it was to get back in. It took a while and some patience and some writing and some fighting, but not as much as I thought. Of Course, I also don't think i was ready to go back and commit 100% to it until now. Everything happens when it's supposed to, you know? You just need to the faith to know that it will all work out.
I have once class from 1-4 on mondays, one online class, and 4 classes on tuesday. That's my schedule. =) (The Education classes are weird...my 3 credit Educational Psychology class meets on Monday from 1-4 instead of MWF 1-2...I like it but...it sucks when you have, say, geography that meets at normal times. I am registering for the night section so I'm in school from 8a-3p and then a break to study then Geography is 6p-9p...)
SO...NO ONE LET ME HANG OUT ON TUESDAYS! =D
My advisor who I work with on the native club attended a section of an orientation that talked about the color code. I told him I was a yellow and, lo and behold, he walked in during the presentation of the Yellow personality. LOL. He told me he chuckled rather heartily and understands me a LOT better now. hee hee...still working on keeping my negative yellow qualities in check.
Anyway, I'm excited. I actually YEARN to do papers, and presentations, and such. I guess be careful what I wish for?? =)
