It was the best of times. . .

Since we met last, my life has improved vastly. There were a few of those worries in my last blog that were ACTUAL worries and some progress has been made. One of the things that I was worried about that I didn't really talk about was the fact that I wasn't sure I was going to be able to go to school this fall after all. I wasn't able to get a transcript from TWU because I'm still paying them. Also, I was told by Joe that I would have to take the TASP (which is now the THEA), and I probably wouldn't be able to take it in time and would have to wait until next Semester to start classes. So I started getting a, "what's the point of going," sort of feeling. Well, I went up there and gave them my Phillips transcript and found out that some of my Phillips classes DO count for credit, which I thought wasn't the case, so I'm totally stoked about that. And, I found out that my English 4 AP, and college algebra classes exempt me from those portions of the THEA! HOORAY! I was really worried about passing the math part. Seriously. She said I would still need to take the writing part, which has always been a pretty easy thing for me. I once, in English 4 AP, passed an essay test on a book I didn't read, just by reading the back cover and the first page of the book and then talking the crap out of it, so I think I can handle a little standardized writing test. So I went to the business office to schedule my test, and found out that all the slots for the tests were full, but they still have some openings at the August 12th test in Gainesville. YAY! I can drive to Gainesville, that's not a problem! And they told me that it's ok if I can't get a transcript from TWU, all I have to do is get a letter from the collections agency saying that I've been paying, and all will be right. I can't believe how well it all went. Things never go that well for me, so I'm half way waiting for the other shoe to drop! Also, Jared text. . .texted. . .texd, I have no idea what the past tense of text is, but he did it, and it turns out his hard drive completely died and his computer's been down all week. He wasn't avoiding me after all! So we went to see Unleashed last night, which was AWESOME! Everybody go see it, it's only $2! You can't beat that deal! And then we went to his place and he played guitar for a while, and he is REALLY talented. It was really cool, and pretty hot. I never understood groupies before. And then we watched Mr Bean (the movie) which wasn't so good, but that's ok. And that's all I'm saying about that evening. :) Anyhoo. It's time for tae kwon do. I'll float to it on the fog of happiness that I'm riding until it all comes crashing down around my ears.
