The First Steps...

The first steps at this point are complete. But, they entailed working out my schedule for the next couple of years via the AS option A (Biology) requirements, taking the COMPASS test (Green River class assessment) and of course registering for Summer and Fall quarters.

My big concern was that I wouldn't test into the math I needed or that the classes would already be full. Long story short there was a waitlist involved, but I am in the class and ready to go.

Classes start June 21st, and until that day, I play the waiting game.

On a similar note, I thought that while getting this Green River stuff out of the way was a must, it may also be a good idea to mosey on up to UW - Seattle to see exactly what I should major in, check if my mock up class schedule is acceptable, and what else I should add to it. I also wanted to be dazzled by the program, just to double check if this is the thing for me.

Well, I went up and spoke with Michelle in the Oceanography department, and boy did she dazzle me. She informed me that I am on the right track with my mock up class schedule for GRCC (woot) and she also let me know my path was clear! Oceanography major, with a Marine Bio minor.

She told me all about the program (which is incredible) but alas, I am too tired to recollect that day at this time. :( So sorry.

Monday I go in to take my GED test and get that done (after 4 long years) Nerrvous!

Classes start in less than 17 days. Here we go journey, I'm ready!

Here's to chapters closing, goals accomplished, and curiosity for the near future! *Cheers*
