Just in case anyone was wondering, here's what's been going on lately. I got into UF, but it doesn't matter because I failed the CLAST math test. I was admitted on the conditions of earning a 2.8 GPA or better in my history courses and passing that damn test. I got a 3.0 in the history classes, but I missed the CLAST test by 2 questions. I have to wait until july 22nd to take it again. In addition, I have to pass 2 more practice tests with a 70 or better in the CLAST lab, and I might have to pay to retake the test. I've been talking to different people at UF to see what my options are. The associate dean at the college of liberal arts and sciences told me that I would have to wait until spring to apply again because it was too late to apply for fall. I emailed the admissions office though, and the lady there said she coud switch my application so I wouldn't have to fill a new one out, and she asked what I would be doing from july-december. It sounds to me like I may be able to get in during the fall if she's wondering what I'll be doing then. I wrote back and said I'll be working on that test unless I can get in during the fall. I'm just going to study a lot and take it again on the 22nd and hope I pass it. It's the only thing I have left to do. I don't have any more classes I need to take, I actually already have way more credit hours than I need to graduate. You only need 60 and I have 90 or maybe more. You need 120 for a bachelors, but I'm pretty sure that when I transfer to UF they're only going to accept 60 of my credit hours. That kind of sucks but oh well, at least I'm finally making progress. I feel like I've been in CC forever. I just want to get into UF, and then get my degree and start teaching so I don't have to work at Lowe's anymore. I know I can do it, I just wish that it would have been done already. I always seem to just barely fail instead of just barely pass. Well anyway that's pretty much the situation with school. I've got 9 days off from work, which is pretty cool. It's my vacation time. I'm going to Universal on friday and saturday. Stefanie, Melissa, Stephanie, and I are staying at the Hard Rock Hotel, which I'm really looking foward to. I've always wanted to stay there. We tried to get Brian to go but he couldn't. I'm excited about the room key express pass thing, that should help a lot. When Stef and I stayed at the Royal Pacific for the Carlos Mencia show, the express pass thing didn't even matter because the parks were pretty dead anyway. I've been trying to write some new music. I've got 3 or 4 pretty solid ideas, but the music is definitely not finished yet and I haven't written any lyrics yet. It'll come in time. Ben Kweller and Tim Fite are coming to Orlando and Jacksonville in August. I'd like to go, but it looks like I don't have anyone to go with, so I might just sit this one out. Michael Moore's new movie is coming out soon, I'm definitely going to that. I guess that's really all I can think of that's going on right now. They're making a Fender Stratocaster guitar controller for the xbox 360 which I want to get when it comes out. Ok now that's all I can think of. Hope everyone is ok. Later
