Upheavals, good grades, and prepping for the pageant...

It's been a few months since I last updated. I've been rather busy.

First of all, I'm roommate-less at the moment. Turns out there were some problems, and since she was getting married anyway, Kristy moved out. What really hurt was that she did this without talking to me or owning up to those problems.

Because of the problems, I've had to take on more debt to fix them, and I was thinking that I wouldn't be able to do the pageant this summer. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to afford to take two weeks off work to do it. But I am determined to do this. The Lord needs me in Nauvoo for those two weeks this summer, and while it looks like the adversary is trying to make it so I don't go, he won't succeed. Even if I have to get help from family to make sure the bills are paid, I'm still going.

I got my grades from my last two terms. I did make the Dean's List for the December term, and I almost got straight A's for this last term, which would've made me prime for President's List. However, I did bomb the final exam for Accounting I, but I got a final grade of A-. I was SO DANG CLOSE!!!!! But that's okay. Dean's List is nothing to sniff at. It's a great accomplishment. :)

Now, I've started a new term at Kaplan, with three online classes: Finance, Managerial Accounting for Professionals, and Operations Management. It's going to be hard juggling classes, work, and the Nauvoo Pageant. However, if I exercise some faith and work hard, I should be able to pull it off.

Slan go foill...
