quick like a fox!

Calbaptist is amazing... let me tell you. It was a whole mess... and it got fixed in about a week. So let me start from the beginning... I don't think I've said everything on this blog.

Ok, so I got put on Financial Aid Probation... ya, what the crap is that? Its not even academic probation its financial aid... so, why you may ask... well, because I had 2 withdraws. I wasn't even aware that I couldn't make a withdraw last fall... but, I did and then when spring rolled around and I wasn't doing so well in ASL2(because I hadn't taken it in a year) I dropped that class too...
Then, later, I find out that I was on probation and that if I dropped another class I would get my financial aid cut off. And, I found this out after I dropped ASL2... so they terminated my financial aid for fall 2006!! what the crap eh? So, I had to go through an appeal process... which wasn't too hard. All I had to do was show them that I have good grades and why I dropped asl and how I'm consistent... which was easy since I really do have really great grades!
So anyway... I just got the letter back from them and yay for me I got it reinstated.

The thing that was most cool was I turned all my paper work in last tuesday, and I got a letter from them this tuesday... which got lost in my dad's car for 3 days and finally arrived in my hands today... but, still I wasn't expecting the letter until next week sometime.
I'm pretty excited because I've been stressing about this for a while.
I still have to worry about the last 1,000 or so for books and other stuff... but, I think that will work out... if not, who need books? just kiding! I'm a A student now! I actually have to read my books and do my homework.
And, like I said, University is harder than most people realize... so ya, for me!

I'm starting school in a month. I wonder if I can move on campus early. I should find out about that.
