21 more credits! :-)

I was looking on the degree audit on the college website yesterday and realized that I only have 21 more credits til I can gradutate!  I just need 5 more classes!  That is only fall and winter quarter next year!!  But I also need to get my foreign language classes on top of that 21 credits.  So I will probably take them winter and spring quarter next year!

There is an end in sight!  I have been in school for 2 years and to be completely honest...have been contemplating just giving up lately.  I go to school full time; 3 classes (or more) every quarter and they are all really intense classes with alot of homework.  And I work 2 jobs on top of that.  I am hardly ever home and hardly ever have time to do anything fun anymore.

Plus the college paper is like a 3rd job because pretty much all of the work is done outside of class time.  And speaking of the paper...this is a really tough decision, but I have decided that I will probably take the fall quarter off from that class!  I'm sure my editors will not be happy, but I will be back for at at least one more quarter, just not fall.  I need to focus on the few other classes I need for my degree!  I have also decided that I will offer to still write an occasional story for the paper if they are interested and just be a contributing writer.

Right now I am looking for another summer job because my other 2 jobs will not have a ton of extra hours for me and I need to get my car completely fixed and in good working order.  That and I want to have savings!  I have always sucked at saving money and when I have extra money come my way it always ends up going to bills or other things like taking my kitty in for her shots or something.
