choppy, choppy!
I got about 3-4 inches of hair chopped off today (okay, yesterday) I was afraid to do it, but I'm glad I did now. Between the length she took off and the bulk she took out, there was enough hair on the floor to cover a small dog, maybe 2. Lakeshia was all shocked and happy when she came home from work and saw my hair. Ben's not happy about it. I had uber-long hair when we met and he misses it. If he wants me to grow it out that bad after we're married, he can clean out the shower drain all the time.
I finally looked at my financial aid stuff the other day. I'm getting a grant from ISU and I'm work-study eligible for 05-06. So they finally recognize that I'm poor. But I'm still paying the majority of my schooling through loans, which means I'll be even more poor when I finally graduate. I should prolly work on the whole GPA thing and try for more scholarships.
Since I'm totally dense about the work-study thing, I called our lovely financial aid office to get more info and ask about my summer aid. I was under the impression that I could apply for an emergency loan to cover living expenses till my summer class starts in mid-June. The guy said that I couldn't do that, but that I could take a 1st session summer class and get loan money disbursed when that class starts. Well, the calc class I'm registered for is 4 credits and I was also told that taking more than 6 ISU hours during the summer would cost more than I could get aid to cover. But this guy is telling me that since they are 2 different terms that they wouldn't conflict, but I'd have to stop in the office to get my money disbursed earlier if I signed up for a 1st session class. So. Now I'm taking Psych 230 at 8:40 in the goddamn morning! My computer says its 5:28 right now. I'm gonna be screwed for the whole summer. 1st session is from 5/16-6/10 and 2nd session is 6/13-8/??. Plus I'm still taking an online class through Metro. This sucks. I was planning on being in Omaha for my birthday on 6/8. I'll pretty much be going to class, working, doing homework, and eating during the week. I won't sleep till Sunday. I'll go to bed at 9pm on Saturday night and won't wake up till time to go to my friggin 8:40 class on Monday. I did pretty well in my Psych 101 during fall semester even though I barely went. I'll get a good grade in that class and help get my GPA out of the gutter.
okay, night
