Hello everyone i am back from my little break. I apologize for the long break but i had to handle a lot of stuff in my personal life and i was beginning to fall behind in classes. Now things have calmed down a bit and i am able to get back to blogging and other activities. It is currently 1 in the morning Sunday and i cannot sleep so i decided that i will blog a bit to see if i can tire myself out. This semester is starting to look that it will be just as hectic as last semester. I have currently have classes in the building on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. The big issue with that is i now live in New Jersey so it is a little longer to get home and costly also as i need to take a cab from the train. Hopefully when i go for my retake of my license on Thursday i will pass and be able to finally get a car and just drive from the train myself. I also have to contend with the possibility that i may need surgery on my left knee. About two Friday's ago i fell and landed wrong in the stairwell of my job. Now if you can recall awhile ago i said my company bought a building and we were preparing to move in, well on September 8th we moved in. So the stairwell was not done so when i fell i landed on my feet but i twisted my knee on the uneven concrete. I will find out on Monday if i have a tear or not.
The biggest thing is that i am preparing for graduation. I have finally handed in my transcript so i will be able to get those transfer credits but the problem with being so close to graduation is that i am running out of classes to take. This semester alone i am taking two elective classes and as i get closer to the big day i will be taking more and more electives. I want to take this time to thank Primetime which is now the Dept. of Continuing Education, for all their help getting me the classes i needed for this semester. My only issue that i do have is that there is not enough room in the Department of Continuing Education to fit everyone that needs to see Advisement, Student Accounts and Financial Aid. The reason why spacing is an issue is because since most Continuing Ed students have jobs they tend to bottleneck and go to the department between 5 and 8 in the evening. Sometimes there is a 30-60 minute wait to see some one. What also makes it difficult is that they reserve days for new students which furthers limit the time continuing students have to get things settled. I personally believe that if we had the whole floor instead of one room it would allow for more students to be seen since you can now fit more advisers, financial aid personnel and student account personnel. It will also allow the department to be divided in half so that way one wing can handle new students and the other wing can handle continuing students. Anyway that is all for now i will catch you guys later on in the week.
