3/31/12

It's 3:45 a.m. now. I woke up at 2:00 after I fell asleep at midnight and I'm still up. Hate it when this happens. Oh well, I just live with it. At least I can sleep tomorrow. Nothing is going on online though and I'm pretty bored. MDJ has been really quiet lately. Fu is kind of slow so I keep checking in on that every once in awhile and liking and rating people on that game. Was chatting with someone, but I think they fell asleep on me. I don't blame the person. It's freaking late! 


My financial adviser called me today and we went over scholarships and financial aid. She told me about keeping a certain grade in my classes. About how to look for scholarships and how important they can be. They can save me a lot of money if I can get some. To borrow not any more money that I need. Things like that. She said she will be calling me periodically throughout my classes. It took awhile. We were on the phone for quite a bit. I have one scholarship I'm going to apply for, but there are more out there. Tons more. It's going to take some time to do this. She said to do it in spurts of time so I don't get overwhelmed. 


My orientation is almost over. Yippee! Then comes the real school. I hope I can keep up. I'm just going to have to use my time well. I start on the 9th. I hope I am interested in my classes. Math is what I'm dreading the most. It's hard for me. I can't remember it when it comes to math from school. My memory doesn't like it. One of my first two classes is a finance class. I think I will like that one. I can't remember the other class I'm taking. Something to do with entering a university or something like that. 


I have not heard from the mental health clinic yet. I'm going to have to call them I think. I was hoping they would call me. They said that they would call in one to two weeks. It's been that long I think by tomorrow. I just hope I get my medications paid for. Changing medications will be hard to though if I have to do that. I don't want to mess with my stability, so I hope it doesn't. that would be awful for me. I've been stable for a long time with depression, but I got the depression taken care of. 


Oh, I may qualify for disability services at school since I have a mental illness. I don't know what kind of help they can give me, but if I need it it's there for me to use as long as I fill out the appropriate forms. I more than likely won't need it though. I've always done pretty good. When I went to The Institute of Technology, I got a 99% in the class with perfect attendance. That was good. I know I can do good as long as I put my mind to it. Just gotta be positive.


One of my younger sisters called me today. She is coming to my city tomorrow for a massage class. She may want to have lunch. I told her I would, but hopefully I don't fall asleep since I'm up so late and have to make her wait. I don't really feel like going, but since she is coming down, if she wants to, I will go. She's always trying to get me to come to the mountains where I used to live and she lives. I just don't like it there. The three sisters that live there just don't understand. My oldest sister and I live in the city and love it. They are all mountain girls I guess. 


Well, I guess I'm going to find something to do. Oh, I need to find out how much a battery backup is for my computer. The electricity keeps going off in the morning for some reason and my computer is on. It's shut down improperly. It's not good. Once I get one of those, I can properly shut it down if the lights go out. They are probably expensive like everything is.
