woot woot...

Last year I wanted to send in my social work application. Due to an unfortunate event, I somehow managed to erase my application, like four hours before I was supposed to be at the airport. I went to press file print, but instead I pressed the back button and POOF all my hard work became obsolete. I remember how I started to cry. I also was not packed and not ready to leave the country because I spent my time trying to get my application done. I remember Brittany, BreAnn, (i think Meghan too)...they came into Brittany's room and started to pack for me while I was a emotional wreck...they were so nice to me.

I remember the day the application was due, January 15th. I remember how I starred at the ceiling in our room that morning in bed. But I remembered that it would get worked out and something would happen.

Technically as a social work qualifying student, I am only allowed to take four classes. With this semester, I will have completed them. So I had to email the Dean at the Faculty of Social Work to get permission to take an extra class. Basically if I was going to get SW347 in swift, I had to do it now (because courses alternate every two years, and I want to be done next year). So I emailed and asked very politely and he gave me permission. Then there is a SW 417 class (Drug and other substance abuse) being offered as well. I thought that I might as well try for that one too, what is the worst that can happen. I know that in the past, other students from swift current have emailed to take two extra courses above the allotted four, usually they were denied. So I wasn't staking a whole lot on being able to take it. But praise be to God, because I got an email the other week granting me permission to take it. So, even if I was in the faculty I would only be taking these social work classes this semester. Isn't it nice to know that there is a God who is watching over us and helping us a long the way.
