So yeah. . . . WOW.
The last couple of months have been a roller coaster. I decided late last year that I would attempt to get into the University of Washington. I had enough credits to transfer....I even got my ducks in line with my old transcripts. Crazy thing happened a couple of weeks ago. I got in.
I am not a UW Husky. a Dawg if you will. It's been nuts. I loved how subtle the acceptance letter was. A huge envelope that had "YOU'RE IN" plastered all over it. Weak kneed I managed to get through the rest of the process to confirm my spot. I've seen my councilor, I've registered. I even have my husky card. WOOT!
Now it's the nervous wait to find out what my employer will do. My plan is to flex my schedule so I can work and go to school for both the spring quarter and summer. This will give me the chance to knock out the last class I need for my program and also to take a Spanish 102 class that I'm lacking. Go fig. . they require 2 years of language. I have 1 year of French, 1 year of Spanish. Booo.
So yeah. . there we go. . . I am in a university, and if I'm to believe my councilor, applying to the program is just a formality, I am on my way to being an Engineer.
Go me.
Now I just need to survive the rest of this quarter. Java programming is being a slight pain in my ass.
