I feel really excited about my life today. 🙂

I feel really excited about my life today.  🙂

I met with my adviser and asked her an ass-ton of questions.  She believes that I will be ready to graduate GSCC in the Spring of 2017, so that's awesome.  I will have a General Studies degree with a concentration in Computer Science.  Woohoo!  😃  Then it's on to JSU!

Registration for classes isn't open yet, but I am eligible for Priority Registration this time, so I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get the classes we planned out.  Even without being eligible for Priority Registration in the past I've always gotten what I need.  Probably because I'm a freak and I get up as soon as registration opens and add my classes like I'm opening presents on Christmas morning.  LOL

So... I'll be taking Trig at the Gadsden Campus.  That's a hike.  One the bright side and also the dark side, the class starts at 7.  Wait, let me clarify - 7 PM.  That's ok with me because my brain will be awake and ready for that, but it's a LONG class - ending at 9:45.  Thankfully, it only meets one day a week.  I will also be taking biology and another history.

So you would think that would be enough excitement for one day, but it wasn't.  I was concerned about having money for summer classes next year since my Pell Grant will be used for Spring and Fall.  Thankfully, Student Support Services has my back.  They have a scholarship that I will be eligible for, and it sounded like it was a pretty sure thing that they would help me.  So that is awesome.  😃

But, that's not even the end of my school day excitement.  I had seen a job posting for math tutoring a while back and briefly considered trying it, but chickened out.  I didn't mention it, but my adviser did and asked me how I felt about it.  I told her that I wasn't sure if I would be good at it, but that I'd considered it.  Well, she took me to meet the tutoring coordinator.  We talked for a while and she wants me to come fill out the paperwork after I get my spring schedule secured.

Yes, I already have a job, but we slow down during the spring and summer and usually only work 4 days a week.  If I tutored one day a week that would help make ends meet, and (even though I'm not really a people-person), I do like to help others.  I think I'd just be tutoring the other Student Support Services students, but I'm totally ok with helping SSS out after all they've done for me.

All in all I'm feeling pretty excited about school and life in general.    This morning was unexpectedly awesome and I'm so glad it was.  I feel like it renewed my energy supply for a while.  😃  Yay!
