blogging from school again

Date: January 06, 2003 | 3 Dhu-l-Qidah 1423 Hijriah
Subjects: school, paralegal
Winter quarter classes started today. I have a really weird schedule this quarter. I have a class from noon to 2:10 p.m., then my next class is from 5 p.m. to 7:10 p.m. and my third class of the day is from 7:15 p.m. to 9:25 p.m. So I have this period of nearly three hours in the middle of the day. It isn't enough time to return home; I'd just have to turn around and come back shortly after I got there. I figure that I can do homework, inshallah. And if I have some extra time, I can work on my Quran memorization, inshallah (I got behind because I wasn't able to really work on it on my vacation).

The first day is always the weirdest. Last quarter all my classes let out way early on the first day because the instructors wanted us to have a chance to do reading before they began the instruction and of course we don't have a chance to do reading before the first day of class tongue My first class today took the other option which is to do all those "let's introduce ourselves to the class" activities roll eyes

I still have two more classes to go, so we'll see how that is.

The other thing I had to do today was go to the Financial Aid office. I'm not eligible for federal financial aid because I have a bachelor's degree already. So since my parents are helping me pay for school, I didn't apply for financial aid. However, I got on their lists because I got a Worker Retraining scholarship last quarter. So what happened is that while I was on vacation I got a letter from the Financial Aid office claiming that I would not be eligible for financial aid for winter quarter because either I hadn't taken enough credits or my grades weren't good enough. I was like WTH?! I took 15 credits and got a 4.0. So I went by the Financial Aid office to get it cleared up. It turns out that one of my instructors was apparently late in submitting grades or the Financial Aid office checked my grades before all of them had been submitted. So to them it looked like I didn't have a complete schedule and that's why I got that stupid letter. How annoying mad I made sure that they would update their records. Bloody bureaucracies.
