So things have been a little... crazy lately. I am currently trying to get things squared away for college. Who knew it would be such a pain to establish residency! I mean I have lived here for an entire year now!... technically.... So August 21st, 2011 was the day I moved across the country to beautiful Colorado. So on Tuesday I will have lived here for an "official" year!
I love my job! Charlotte is just the most wonderful kid to watch! She reminds me so much of Gabe personality wise! She will be a year old on Thursday! I can honestly say I have watched her grow... for the past few months... I have been watching the twins (Stefie and Allie) on Tuesdays and Thursdays. That is so far only for this month. But that is OK! They are wonderful to have and very helpful with Charlotte =]
Now to the crazy part of my life... COLLEGE!!! Yes I am now OFFICIALLY a college student! *cue the applause* Thank you thank you! You're far to kind! lol Well it has been a major thorn in my side for the past month! I had to fill out paperwork to petition for residency. Well the lady I had a meeting with gave me the wrong form! So I had to fill out this other sheet with my dad to make sure I was considered a resident. This other sheet was given to us by the head of admissions and told us EXACTLY what we needed. So we go and talk to a counselor to make sure my classes will line up with ACU to make sure they transfer for next fall and all that was good. We take our form for my residency and the lady at the desk says she will approve it, but it probably isn't all the right information. UGH!!! Well the next day i check my student email and my residency was approved! YAY! The head of admissions told me that I need to fill out the Colorado Opportunity Fund. Sounds simple enough, right? WRONG!!! You have to have a Colorado drivers license to fill it out! Yet another snag! So now I have to go finally get my license switched from MI to CO. So I emailed the admissions lady this morning and asked what to do because I wasn't able to switch my license over this morning. I didn't have 4 hours to stand in line because I had to get back to work. She told me not to worry and set up a payment plan so that I won't get dropped from my classes. Then I will have some time to get my license switched over and get my COF application in and taken care of. *whew* So that has been a major headache for me lately. After I get something done and taken care of another problem shows up!
So next fall I will *hopefully* be at Abilene Christian University! That's the plan anyways! I have stuff for the Onstead Scholarship to fill out for that. That is their Preacher Kid discount lol plus I'm going to make sure I keep my GPA up between a 3.2 and 4.0 so i can get a decent chunk of money off my tuition!
Since I last wrote, I have turned 19! I went to a Concert on my moms birthday, and then 2 days later my dad took me for my birthday dinner! It was an awesome birthday weekend!
I went to see Van Halen 4 days before my 19th birthday! I also went to the Texas de Brazil for my birthday and defiantly ate my money's worth!
A couple weeks after my birthday my Grandpa Terry and cousin Marlon came out to visit. We took Marlon up to Estes Park and to the Continental Divide! It was so much fun!
I went to the continental divide while Marlon was out here visiting with us! Plus we had to have a family picture! He is growing up on me!
Things are starting to fall into place! I am SUPER excited to enter this phase of my life! I have waited patiently for all of this. I am very much ready for all that college has to give! I couldn't be happier with my life right now!
Until next time... XOXO
