Classes start soon and there is still a long list of things for me to do. I have credits to transfer from the community college courses I took last summer. I have to make sure that my grants and loans go through on time to buy my books and to pay for my courses. I have to get my laptop fixed, it’s running uber slow, and I should get out and party a bit being studying is about to consume my many nights ahead!
Most of my general credits were taken at the local community college here in town and I need to transfer my credits over to the new college I’m going to. I was worried that my credits wouldn’t all transfer over but being the requirements are the same at my new school and it wasn’t that long ago that I took the courses my counselor let me know that they would transfer over just fine. Good news is always great!
My loans and grants were approved but the funds aren’t physically in my possession. Naturally, I’ll worry about the moola arriving on time until it reaches the moola is in my hands and my courses and books are paid for. I don’t worry much on a regular, but the parents are all stressed over the little break I took and asking them for money at this moment wouldn’t be the best idea (remember I took time off to work and to save money, letting them know I’m broke wouldn’t be the best thing right now)!
Then we have the laptop on my list! It is slow, no viruses… just slow. I had my geek friend look at it and he thinks I need some added software, more memory, and he will clean out all the garbage I don’t use to give me more space. This has to be done soon. I can’t stand using computers at the library nor do I like to use my parent’s computer. I like to do things on my own time on my own computer.
Once these things are done then I’ll be at peace. I’m just trying to be as prepared as I can be with the new semester around the corner. I do very well when I’m better prepared for school. How do you get prepared for school? Please share by commenting below.
