Semi-exciting news

So I was talking to my cuz last week because I was looking at Centennial's website and I thought it said that classes start Sept, Jan and May. Amy told me that it was only Sept and Jan, she didn't know why May was there. So I called up the school and they said that they are still accepting applications for the Jan classes.

I would be entering as a mature student seeing as how I'm over 19, which means that if I don't want, I don't have to worry about getting my GED. I want to get it but I don't like the idea that one of the days classes run till 9pm which would mean that I would be getting home round midnight or something seeing as how no one is willing to pick me up. The only good this is that I don't have to pay for it, my caseworker told me that OW is going to pay for it.

I have to get a 450 to pass and at this point working in the textbook that I bough for studying, I'm not doing so good but I know that mom would have wanted me to get my high school diploma. Its taking too long to go for the courses; I have another 5 to go, its holding me back from getting a job.

I've already got dates set up for when I do my Fist-aid/CPR training, its going to be 2 days, all day and its in Nov and like my GED the gov is also going to be paying for it. All I have to do now, is get $95 in my account out of my savings and put it in my account because that money has to go with my application and I have to get a police check. Then its just waiting to see if I get in or not.

If I don't get in it Jan, I'll try again for next Sept but I'm going to keep positive vibes going for Jan classed. Amy told me that, that means that I'll be having classes in the summer but I told her that it was fine, I've had my freedom for this long, so its time to get my act together and do something with my life. If I'm guessing correctly I'll be done in 2016 and I think that Seneca has a course for training people with ECE's to become an all day kindergarten teacher and I'll most likely take that course as well, which means that by the time I'm 30 I might be a teacher.

I've got roughly 4 months to get my GED, finish my creative writing diploma and pay for it as well as do the other things and wait to hear back from Centennial if I'm in or not for Jan.
