I got my appt date/time for Spring 2014 at Cerritos College. November 25 at 3:45 pm. That's a Monday. I hope I get home in time for that, or I'll have to stick around on campus to use the computer lab and make sure I don't miss my time. While I'll only have a fee waiver the covers courses listed on my financial aid education plan, there's only 1 class that I've met the requirements and can take now, so I'll be registering for that class. then, so that I'll have at least part time status, I was thinking about doing a foreign language (Spanish) or Writing (more than likely creative but I'd probably benefit career-wise with critical/argumentative writing).

On the writing subject, I looked at the current course schedule and Creative Writing meets 1 day a week from 12:30-3:20. It might be the same way in the Spring. bleh.

Now, I also remembered to apply to my previous college to take the 1 math class that I can't take at my current college (took it too many time unsuccessfully so have to take it someplace else before I can move on to the required math I need to transfer). On or around November 5 I should get an email with my registration appointment for that school. Classes there start January 27.

Since I'll be going to 2 different colleges (that are like a 3 hr bus ride from each other), I need to think about my schedule NOW and what will best work for me. Since classes meet either twice a week for an hr and a half or once a week for 2 and a half hrs, I'm going to need to make sure I remember which campus I attend on which days. I shouldn't have a problem, but there's a first time for everything.

eta: to make going to 2 colleges "worth it", I can take 2 classes at both campuses. At Cypress I can take Math and Creative Writing (or Spanish) and at Cerritos I can take AJ 105 (or 220) and Spanish (or Creative Writing).

However, If I find a job, I'll only be able to take the classes I absolutely need, which is math and AJ 105/220.

I know there was something else I wanted to mention, but I can't remember so I'll end this to finish cooking my dinner.

Hey BB.

Can't you take the math class on-line? That would prevent you from having to go to two different places. Three hours apart? That's a little insane. Even if you don't have classes in both places on the same day, it would still help if you could take it on-line, wouldn't it?

I register on November 10. Fortunately, there are so few of us in my program, I don't have to worry about getting closed out of any of the classes I have to take. I will have to take Physics which is going to kill me. But what can you do? It's a requirement.

School can be a crazy-place, can't it?

I'm fairly certain I can take it online (still at this other college), but I think I'd still have to go to the campus to take the test. Math isn't my strongest subject so I wouldn't want to do it online.

Plus, if I can get out of the house, it would limit the amount of bitching I have to hear from my dad about not doing anything and blah blah blah.

School is very crazy, but it's getting me out of the house and I do enjoy learning.

I missed the opening of enrolment for one of my classes for next semester (it starts in March 2014) and missed the decent timed classes and only barely made it into the last tutorial which is late on Tuesday nights (8-10pm). The funny part of that whole situation? I missed the opening of enrolments by 17 minutes.

That's my fear - missing the enrollment by mins. I can't not take classes because I'll have my aid taken away and I need that, so I have notes all over the place reminding me of the date/time to help me NOT forget.
