  • getting anxious...

    as most of you know I'm going back to school in the fall...for the first time in a decade.

    everything is finally falling into place....till I go accept my note for finical aide. It tells me there's a NEW hold on my application (for school), cause they don't have my acceptance letter....

    4 emails back and forth from the correct department has it telling me I put in the wrong thing on my aide form, and they can't process anything till I get that corrected.

    Granted it was my fault, I put that I was already working on a degree rather then saying I was a first time freshman....but 4 months LATER you're telling me there's a problem?!

    Also my subconscious is fretting too...I've had 2 dreams that are disturbingly vivid...

    The first one was I was moving into my dorm (not living in a dorm ever since I own a home less then 2 miles from the college), and it was more like an expensive suite at a hotel...and I kept fretting about where I was going to put my things since space kept being exactly 2 inches to small for my things, and my roommate kept doing something that kept annoying me too.

    The second one was I was all ready to start my class....a math class of all things, and I met up with someone who said "don't worry I know where that class is, just follow me." But I'd somehow misplaced my backpack, and was going ALL over campus looking for it, cause I was convinced I'd left it by some lockers that had the spin dial style lockers near the library. But I couldn't find those lockers, no one knew what I was talking about, and everyone kept saying the library was burned down. I end up finally at the Culp Center (big student building on real campus with the food court, book store, meeting areas, computer lab and auditorium), and was told to talk to someone on the 4th floor (which doesn't exist in real time its only 3 stories), but strangely I found myself there, and the backpack was there....and then I woke up after introducing myself.


    Am I going crazy?
    It is by snark alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the juice of the coffee bean that thoughts acquire 'tude, the lips acquire mouthiness, the glares become a warning.

    Nope. When you're not focusing on your day-to-day activities, your mind is just running in little circles going "EEEEK! We're going to try something new and kinda scary! EEEEEEK!!" Trust me ... been there, done that. I'm no psychologist (nor do I play one on TV) but I think it's not unusual for someone who's facing a large change in their life to have mildly alarming dreams about it.

    And the aggravation over your student loan money isn't helping. Hope that gets straightened out quickly. Which reminds me, I must get onto mine ... *sigh* ...

      My mind's doing much the same at the moment. I'm leaving a reasonably good job working in pensions for a fulltime teaching degree with no income and no guarantee of a job afterwards. I'm still not entirely sure that it's a good idea, but you only find out these things one way. :P
      I've got the numeracy test in two hours, and if I don't pass this and the literacy one (three goes anyway) then I don't get into uni. Believe me, I had more than a little trouble sleeping last night.
