So, i'm taking summer courses right now and they are pretty interesting, but the best part!.... They saved me from being kicked out of school for a year or two. Had i not been taking summer classes, I would have lost my home, my job, and my recent knowledge from previous classes. UWM is my whole life right now. I live here, i work here, I learn here, I grow here. If i were kicked out i would have to find a new job, i new home, and a new plan for my life, so sorry if i sound a little down but if it weren't for my two 4 week courses and my one english class.. I'd be losing a lot for a while.
Here's how it started...
Retarded me decided to fail english because i'm a moron (no comments from the peanut gallery please) so i tried to sign up for english to take it during the summer so i can get it done and over with. Well much to my surprise, i learn that i'm supposed to get an appeals meeting to get into the class. So i set up the appointment and what not. The appointment was today, i was expecting jsut to walk in talk to my advisor and get the okay within 15 minutes. WELL it didn't happen that way... I walked in saw 3 advisors, the assistant dean, and the Dean of my college (college of health sciences) and realized that this isn't JUST for my english anymore. I came to find out that i might be dropped because i wasn't able to raise my CUM GPA above a 2.0 this semester so they were about to drop me.. moment i heard that, tears did not stop running for about an hour and a half. They let me stay in summer classes because i have already paid and started two of them. I'm seeing my advisor 30 minutes before my 9am class to get into my english class. I lucked out but still, this afternoon oculd have changed my whole life plan
Graduate with some BA in clinical lab science around 23 ish and then go to grad school for a couple years out in San Franscisco get married around late 20's/ early 30's have my career, my bitch, lol, and kids... assuming there's nothing wrong with me.
Oh yeah... on that note, i'm going to tell all of you.. i haven't had my period sicne February.. I'm not pregnant.. don't worry but i'm guessing there is something wrong with me becuase that's not normal at all. But since i am adopted from Tijuana, GOD only knows what is in my family history... this is hte only thing that has ever scared me.. and i don't go to the doctor a lot.. like some hypochondriacs... becuase my mom is more worried about money than anything else. Some people know this because i had to go to my dad to see a dentist instead of talking to my mom. I also haven't been able to get to my doctor because i live in milwaukee and my doctor is JUST getting over her first born and shes in new berlin. Lately my whole life has been summer classes and working. I know there is something wrong with me because every morning i wake up, my throat all up and down is dry and it takes a LOT of water to help it, I've been shaking uncontrollably a lot lately, my coworkers seem to think my lack of cigarettes is the cause of that, lol. I'm always tired but the fact that i can never seem to fall asleep before 2am everynight and i have a 9am class everyday probably doesn't help.
On the bright side, i have a big room, a full kitchen, and a pretty view for the morning and the night :-D Also, i have my joe to help me whenever i need someone. He has ALWAYS been there for me. He told me today that he talks to me more than his own girlfriend, lol, its true though because she worries TOO much about him. I used to, but if i can trust him with my car, i don't have to worry much.
So to solve today's problem, i went out to jackson to get joe so we could talk on the hour drive back... because traffic sucked today... then up to my room, ordered dinner from pizza shuttle and then he started playing N64 and i was IMing/reading philosophy/sleeping... what a great friendship, ehh?? But he truly is a great guy. I still ahve the others but Brian doesn't talk much, it sometimes shocks me what comes out his mouth though (i mean philosophical conversations with him), we all know benji is just never goin to grow up, and his sense of humor is a little dry with all the worn out sex jokes and what not, Lamb is sometimes busy but always up for a dinner and talk. Its what we do best. then there's matt, he's so quiet until joe comes around, but my god, he needs to find new chicks.. the ones he's considering right now, aren't good enough for him.. one is too much of a jock, one is a whore, one is boring... you tell me which you would pick.
Anyways, i'm at work again of course, attempting to read for philosophy and my peace studies course becuase i have to wake up early for my meeting before class so i want to go home and pass out right away so i don't fall asleep in class again becuase it is seriously worth staying awake for
ask why and i'll tell you why Jim lewis is the greatest fuckin man alive!!!
Alright well 'im sick of writing for now.. leave me some thoughts, questions, concerns, what have you
Later all
