So okay I'm right in the middle of waiting of this next class to start and I just had to write this blog to describe what the heck just occured in the space of three days. Okay so when I got here on Monday, I had nothing solidified at all and my future at UNCPembroke this semester was seriously in danger. But since Kirsten moved with great speed and even Tina responded rather quickly when I called her 3 hours later, I was able to register and get into some classes without much difficulty. The problem came into the fact that since I wasn't able to pre-register before the problem, I had lost much of my changes to get the classes I really needed for my degrees. So after much deliberation and plenty of staring at the computer screen, I decided to go ahead and try to finish out my English degree this semester or get as close to doing that as I could. So I what I managed to do was get 5 English classes which I all need for my degree, and I finished it off with "History of Musical Theatre" which I didn't know was being offered this semester, so with that I can get the minor when the class is done. So that's one down, three to go. After visiting with Dr. Sigmon earlier today, he informs me that I need approximately five more classes for the individual English degree and two more for my Creative Writing Major. I can already see that the only problem running into snag will be the Mass Communication degree that I have to get, but I'll deal with it when the time comes. But the problem today said that I had already registered 18 hours and I was at the max, so there was no way I could fit all of the classes in. I was already taking Concert Choir and stuff but I wasn't registered for it, because it won't fit. However we will have to see about that because when I went to the Registar's Office I was told that it wasn't too late for an overload however since my GPA is only 2.76, it's not high enough normally for an overload.
But I went to Doctor Gash and basically persuaded him to give me 21 credit hours, which he eventually did and I got the Registar's Office to enroll me into Writing Poetry 1, which is one of the classes I need for the degree, which is only offered in the Springtime. So basically God made all of the pieces slowly start coming together and I was even looking at the prospect of leaving UNCP in December with four degrees in hand, on two different diplomas, which I look forward to immensely. He's definately the ultimate puzzle piece, and he is beginning to connect all my pieces together to come out with the ultimate reward, which in this case right now, is Graduation.
