Someone please save us, us college kids.
My college life.
Three Holds
First off I would like to apologize to all -100 of my readers out there for my long absence.

Now back to business...

It has been one hell of a roller coaster ride for me this year... I joined a college newspaper and became a senior writer after only one semester... and then that newspaper got merged with two other campus papers and despite my senior writer status... they have yet to let me write anything....My dad lost his job and I got a job at Eccolab thanks to my uncle who was a supervisor but, understand this: At Eccolabs they will fire you for a single screw up, the only reason that I am still there is because I have yet to screw up! However the single most impressive thing is this: I finally got my AA degree for journalism and mass communications and can therefor finally transfer out of Miami Dade College!

Or at least that is what I had thought.... You see the process of transfer is a lot more complicated then it should be. You there is a lot of paperwork that needs to filled out, fines to pay, calls to make, appointments that need to be made and kept, and things that you may have forgotten about can just crawl out a block your path.

Today when I was turning in some immunization records, the lady at the desk discovered three hold on my account! The 1st was an outstanding balance with the university, the 2nd was an account with a COLLECTION AGENCY, and finally I had to talk to an adviser about an my GPA being below 2.0 even though that was about three years ago! I was upset and determined to get to the bottom of this, so I went around asking questions and found out that the whole ting with t he money was over five bucks! I had seven bucks in my wallet so I took care of that! As for the adviser, I made an appointment for tomorrow so we can clear it up!
