One of those days
This is going to be a long one. What can I say...I'm overdue. :)
I have one online class, and ALL the rest are using eLearning as well. This is the most classes I've had access to at one time through eLearning since I started back to school. I really only needed to take Instruction, Management, & Assessment this term, but fluffed my schedule out with some extra classes that are not REQUIRED, but would be very USEFUL. Here's the rundown:
I spent some time this morning working on my online class, and reading up on my abnormal psych class online. I got Cam to the bus stop, and then went to work. I left work at 8:45 even though my class didn't start until 10. I had to get my parking decal, and I wanted to leave plenty of time to find the psychology building.
I spent nearly 20 minutes waiting in line with half the campus population to purchase another decal, then walk back uphill to the CFPA parking lot. I apply said parking decal, then drive off to the parking lot nearest the psychology building, according to the campus map. Knowing what I know now, I'm pretty sure this map is purely decorative. It took me 20 minutes (no lie) to hike from the parking lot to building 41. Granted, I walked in a circle for part of that time, but still. It only took me 15 minutes to walk back to my car...I suppose it's an improvement, but still. I drove back to the CFPA to eat lunch and then get ready for band, and there was no parking there, either. I'm pretty sure that if I can't find a place to park by the Antrhopology building that I'll just park in the CFPA lot and walk. It HAS to be closer.
My tuition and books are paid now...this is the 3rd year I've done this, and it still seems like a minor miracle to me every time it actually works out. I'm going to pick up my books tomorrow before Counseling class...which is in the same room as abnormal psych...the room I had such issues reaching today. Go fig, right?
I saw a sign in the CFPA stating that applications for graduation in Spring '10 are due on the 28th. That would be 3 days. I have a call into Admissions to see if they'll accept the 2 years I took of Latin in high school for my foreign language requirement...I had planned to take sign language at PJC until I called to register and they already had a waiting list of over 30 people. Nix that. So...if I can get them to sign off on my high school Latin, then I will submit my graduation application, and all will be well with the world. If not...well, I don't want to think about that right now.
I also need to reschedule my senior recital. (whimper) Let's not talk about that right now.
So that's all for now...keep your fingers crossed about that foreign language requirement.

- Instruction, Management, and Assessment (which, as it turns out, will actually be devoted entirely to behavior management)
- Abnormal Psychology
- General Counseling
- Band
- Music for Elementary Teachers (I'm making up a lower grade, and flushing out to 12 hours)
