Disappointment

OK, I'm back in the land of the Mormons and i had a great couple of days before school started. Ive been taking good care of myself and getting back into a routine and reuniting with friends. It was great to go back to my ward and meet some new people too. I will also be having a new calling! yay! I get to be the choir director's assistant :). I have high hopes for the new year in our ward.
Monday was the first day of classes and I had new testament second half at 7:40 am and it was so great... after not being in a religion class for a semester I can appreciate it that much more. Tuesday I was supposed to have class again at 7:40 but didn't make it, then today I had religion again and loved it again... the teacher i have really makes me think more than any other teacher Ive had. My next class was at 12:20 and when I got there I found that I was not on the role... what? I had signed up for classes a long time ago, I should be on the role... so i got online to look up my schedule and found that all of my design classes that I had signed up for were dropped. I didn't do that! I then remembered that to be in the 2 year design program you have to keep a 3.0 or more GPA for design classes and I only have a 2.77 because of some projects I missed in a class. So, to my disappointment I will not be in any classes this semester :( I was really looking forward to starting school again too! So, now I will drop my religion class but keep attending for the enlightenment, then re-take that class in the summer since they don't offer it now and that should increase my GPA enough. I'm just so frustrated with myself for not working harder last semester I really wanted to get closer to finishing! On the up side, I can get a job now, don't have to pay tuition, I will be available to visit family, and I can work on some personal improvements... reading my scriptures and such.... If things work out okay I should be able to graduate in a year.
