Vernal Respite

Tomorrow is the official end of my first actual Spring Break since I started this blog, and I think I'm more tired coming out than I was going in. But I'm probably just sleepy because I'm bored--and maybe a little frustrated. I spent most of the week just hanging out in the IC. On Thursday, my dad came out to bring me to Des Moines to hang out. We spent a couple days just chilling at home, watching TV and talking.

On Saturday, we went to his church, the Lutheran Church of Hope. It looked to have seating for about 3,000, and has 3 services each week. After that, we came back to Iowa City, so I could be up early and set up for Veritas.

When I got back to my apartment, I decided to check my mail. There was a letter from the U of I Admissions Office. Unfortunately, it wasn't an acceptance letter--it was a letter stating that they'd hold their decision until getting a transcript that included the classes I'm taking now. This means that I won't be accepted until May at the earliest. This creates a not-so-insignificant list of problems, including:

1. I almost have to sign up for classes at Kirkwood to cover all my bases
2. I can't sign up for classes at Iowa until after all the freshmen, which means I might not be able to get into the classes I need to, so it could force me to take another semester--beyond everything I already have to do due to the transfer process
3. I'm not sure what's going to happen with financial aid--I can't seem to find any deadlines on when I need to be signed up, except for the FAFSA, which I've already done

So yeah, I'm currently experiencing a trial of my patience and anger. We'll have to wait and see how things turn out.
