Spring Semester

I'm feeling rather depressed right now. I sat down and made a serious study of my degree requirements, and where I'm at in meeting those requirements. Turns out, I'm about 30 credit hours from my degree. Two solid semesters if I put my head down and just barrel right on through.

Excited by this prospect, I tried to enroll in classes for spring semester. Most of the classes I need aren't being offered this semester, and of those that are, none of them are online, and none are offered on the same day (or even two days!) during the week in order to consolidate my driving an hour and a half one way to get to the class.

I need one more English class, and both of the ones offered online are full, but I'm first in the wait-list position, so whichever one I get first is the one I'll take. And I'm taking one political science class on Wednesday night. Six credit hours. Chris is taking 15 this semester. I feel like such a slacker.

There's nothing for it, I guess. I'll have to transfer campuses to the one in Indianapolis for the fall semester. That way even if I have to be in person multiple times a week,  I won't lose entire days from my work schedule. Sigh. So it's at least one more full year after this.

Thanks! I think it'll all work out if I transfer next semester.

I'm sure it's hard to deal with, but I know that you can do it!

Thank you! I hope we can get together soon, since I'm going to have more free time this semester.

I feel like finishing college is a never ending battle! I was in the same situation where I only needed 5 more classes to finish, but they weren't being offered or were at times when I had to work. I've since changed majors (for like the tenth time) and am so happy I can finish my whole degree online!

Good luck to Chris this semester and stay positive. Hopefully one of those classes open up for you!
