I GRADUATED!

Hey everyone! Thanks for being so patient while I got everything with graduation straightened out. I took and passed both cleps, walked in graduation, and graduated ON TIME! Even after being an entire semester behind (thanks to my advisor), I still managed to get everything done on time. I highly recommend the CLEP tests. They were an absolutely lifesaver. If you are able to take them instead taking a class, DO IT. If it is a subject you already feel comfortable with, give it a shot. It can save you years worth of schooling and thousands of dollars. I seriously can not say enough good things about the CLEP. Still, don't take it without studying your butt off first, or you'll be sorry.

Anyway, I am now home for the summer. I got a job as a server at a local fine dining restaurant, and every cent I earn I am saving for Disney!

I'm going to spend the rest of the day editting my vlog, so I'll post the link to it the next time I'm blogging.

Have a magical day! :)

Four Letter Words

The four letter words I'm referring to are: blog, vlog and clep. I'm not even going to mention the other four letter words that have been floating around in my head lately...sigh. There's another one. lol. Anyway, because of my incessant studying for the CLEP, my blogs and my vlogs have had to take a backseat to it, not to mention the possibility of a virus on my laptop, but that's another story. Since everything will most likely become increasingly more complicated leading up to graduation, I'm just letting everyone know that my blogs and my vlogs will be put on hold until I am home in May. I promise as soon as I am home to make a ton of vlogs, because I love making them, and I know you like watching them.

So, now I must get back to studying, studying and more studying.

My brain hurts.

I'm almost there....

Happy Monday, everybody! I, for one, do not have a case of the Mondays today because I woke up to a very promising email about the CLEP tests. The lady that emailed me back said I could definitely take them there. All I have to do is pick the date and pay the fees. Luckily, from going to Longwood, I've had a lot of experience in paying fees...

So, not to jump the gun, or speak too soon, but it seems like this whole credit debacle is finally working itself out.

Now I just need to study like a fiend for the next month. Here goes nothing.

P.S. New Vlog coming today! Seriously. I know I said that last time. But seriously this time.

What a difference a week makes...

It's been a while since I updated my blog. Sorry about that, guys. It has been one of those weeks. In a nutshell, my school decided to wait until March to email me that I won't be graduating on time, even though I met with my advisor in September and he said I was right on track with my credits. After reading this email, I went to my advisor, and asked him why he said I was fine in September. He then proceeded to yell at me and tell me it was my fault because I didn't ask him again...even after he had already sworn up and down I was fine...six months ago...hmmm...

So, then I went to the Assistant Dean, and she apologized for his behavior, which made me feel a little better, yet there was still nothing she could do to fix the situation. It seemed my only option was to register for Summer classes and graduate in August.

The only beacon of light in this scenario is the possibilty of taking CLEP exams for the classes I wasn't told to take six months ago. I'm still waiting to hear back from a local university that administers the exams...Fingers crossed...

Anywho...

New vlog coming tomorrow. :)

Have a Magical Night!
