Guaranteed!

Well, this semester has started out… interestingly. First I accidentily dropped a class and was waitlisted and barely made it back in (unfortunately just as I was getting comfortable with sleeping in). Then I found an extra fee I had to pay for a biology course. After that my semester officially started; I got about five hours of sleep last night, woke up, got ready and my car wouldn’t start. Still made it. After class I logged on here to moderate comments, write a blog, etc. and I had over six thousand comments… almost all spam… so I’m still in the tedious process of moderating though all. I suppose that’s the price we pay for taking a real break over christmas break. But on the bright side, things have been slightly cruddy so something good has to happen right? I wish.

See, life should come with a guarantee: To repay you in good stuff for as much as the bad stuff or your money back. But it doesn’t work that way and sometimes we just have to make do with what we have.

I mean… I did still have a method of transportation to get me to school. I did make it back into my class after I made that mistake. The extra fee that popped up is not much and it’s easily payable and it’s because I’m taking a course I really wanted. All the comments will eventually have an end, even if I don’t like moderating them. And on top of that my writing is going great; I got accepted and am going to the college I really wanted next fall; I have a steady job so I can buy a new car; I have a boyfriend who doesn’t care when I’m grumpy and lets me call him Neko (I mean, come on, that’s amazing); I got teachers I like and classes I wanted and this is shaping up to be a great semester! Maybe it won’t go all according to plan but, eh, what does? The best we can do it to do what we can with what we have and no one can ask more of us than that.

I look forward to sharing the semester with you here in the halls of Iowa Western Community College. Good luck starting classes and getting settled in this week!
