school, work, graduate??

I redid and added things for my fall themed house. But I havent loaded any pictures yet so that will have to be later. school was so hard for me to get back into this fall. either that or im just taking really hard classes. im in the honors society and have a 3.5 gpa, but for some reason on all my test so far im getting C's. I know it sounds bad, but if only 15 people out of 50 passed, i guess its a good grade?? I have to get all B's to stay in the honors society. Maybe now that midterms are over I can start to focus and pull my grades up.

My new adviser canceled our meeting 3 times, and gave me the excuse they lost my degree plan. Did I mention I am supposed to graduate in May? Our applications for graduation were due last week. I have been trying to get with my advisor to make sure I will graduate and to see what classes I have left in the spring to take. I finally got an email that said i had to redo my degree plan and email it back to him since they lost mine. I went up to the secretary of the department and got a copy of my plan from her (it was sitting in my file). The old department chair signed off on my electives back in 08 but the new dept chair doesnt accept those electives so if they lost my degree plan id have to take more electives the new chair member approves and wont graduate in may. i emailed him my degree plan and so far havent heard anything back....

I am finally starting to see will more often as of last week and its wonderful! He is making more of an effort without me even asking him which is nice.
Work has been a little rough the past few weeks. There is one girl that just doesnt work, literally sleeps at her desk and talks on the phone with her friends. I finally got the courage to tell my boss when we had one-on-one meetings. Then we got into another argument about sitting in the "hot seat" (call codes, deal with maintenance issues with the fire system etc.) that finally got fixed to and we got a weekly schedule of who will sit there. Things seem to be coming together!

Maybe the last half of the semester will be really great?!? only 7 weeks left of school this semester!
