write.
I gotta write when I have a lot on my mind...
Yay, school's about to start :o)
Things I have learned in preparation for school:
Step 1: First, you have to believe in yourself.
Step 2: You have to apply.
Step 3: You have to be patient & wait....& wait.
Reality 1: School is not cheap once you do get accepted. One word: tuition.
Reality 2: You have to get loans. You have to make sure to get the right one, so you have to calculate the cost of living for one whole year...& do the math first & then you can apply. Then you have to qualify for it! These things take their "sweet" time.
Finally, when all this is over, you can start school. Oh, the money talk...is pretty stressful. But you can't let it get to you. It's just a tool that you use to finally get to your goal which is.... --------> finishing school & getting your degree.
As excited as I am to start school (yes, I am), I'll definitely be more excited when the money talk is over.
Then, I know, it's official. Let it begin~~~~~

oh, steph...no luck today~
Gosh...*grumble grumble grumble...
It poured ALL day long.. Today was definitely one of those days ...I should have stayed home & avoided the outside world. -__- (It could be a scary or just a bad day)
Unfortunately, I had a school appointment in the morning in LA...making me stay on the road, in the rain.
**Since 9 am I was on the freeway headed for LA, stuck in heavy traffic. Perfect.
**I passed at least 2 big car accidents, including a giant supermarket truck that had managed to literally crash into the opposite traffic. That was pretty scary. And the last one made me 10 minutes late for my appointment. ><
**The visit with my school adviser only took 30 minutes (short & sweet) & then I came to my car...which had a 'lovely' parking ticket on the front window.
**I looked at the violation I made..."parked on Wednesday morning between 8 AM - 11 AM during street cleaning hours." The sad & ironic part is, I did notice & had read the sign before I parked there!!! But I was so jaded by the long, arduous drive to LA that I completely forgot that it was Wednesday morning even though I had just read the sign!!!!!!!!! Oh, Steph~ -_________-
~~~~>>>>> But wait, there was a lovely SECOND ticket attached to the first ticket....."no license plate on the front of the car." Omg, are you serious?? Only in LA~~~~~ I've driven my car around for 4 months in OC...only to step foot in LA for 30 minutes & get double fined. WOW.
Lucky day for Steph.
NOTTTTT~
(Should've scheduled my appointment for another day...any other day.)
