5. Finish my bachelor's degree
March 26th, 2008:
I mailed off transcript requests to both Illinois State University and Lincoln College earlier today. I just hope all the crap I went through in getting both places paid off has been settled now, so they'll actually send them.
April 23rd, 2008:
I haven't gotten an official letter or anything, but today I got a pamphlet from Western Illinois University in the mail, with instructions on how to activate my school email account and access the student information website. This can only mean that I've been admitted in some way, shape or form. And I'm fucking ecstatic about it.
July 8th, 2008: I finished a mini-course entitled Gay and Lesbian Identity. 1 credit.
July 11th, 2008: Finished another mini-course called The Apple Doesn't Fall Far From the Tree, about dysfunctional behavior and how it's passed down through generations. 1 credit.
January 4th, 2009: I received my grades for the fall semester. An A in Gender and Society, a B in Women in Literature, a D in Human Diseases since I bombed two exams, and an F in Women in Popular Culture that the professor is going to change since she didnt include a paper grade. I got an Incomplete for Environmental Geology, which I was expecting. I have to take the exams.
My final semester of undergrad, which begins January 20th, consists of the following classes:
Crime and Police
Biology of Aging
Leisure Services for the Elderly
Intro to Climatology
International Business
Principles of Marketing
Media and Minorities
May 15th 2009: Finished with my spring classes, passed all four. Not very good grades but decent enough considering I was dependent on internet cafes for the majority of the semester lol. Summer classes begin June 8th, and I'll graduate after they end on July 31st. I'm taking International Business, The Short Story, Moral Philosophy and Behavior Modification.
