As registration of a new semester began, I was upset that the University would not accept my re-entry. The fall of 2007 was the last semester I attended school. I was about due and on my way to delivering my third child two weeks before the ending of Fall 2007. I did not return back to school for Spring because I needed to recover and spend some loving time with my new baby girl.
I decided to return back to school fall 2008 to achieve my goal of self accomplishment. Registering for classes was a bad experience for me. I felt I was starting school for the first time, a chicken with no head. Upsetting as it was for me, I felt like giving up and forgetting about school. First of all the admissions and records lost my re-entry form, my change of personal information, and my withdrawl form from Fall 2007. Every week begining August sixth I came to the University in hopes to registering for the classes and Professors I wanted. The admissions and records department advised me to register on the last day of registration, all my information will be processed and ready by the last day of registration. Ohh...I thought to myself maybe this is not the right time to go back to school. This was a sign for me to think hard about returning back to school.
Well finally August nineteenth arrived and I was able to register; but just as I thought all the classes I wanted were full. I guess I would just deal with the classes given to me, no harm in that. Thinking back on the past weeks I realize that I was just being selfish and not wanting to accept what life had in store for me. Now I can press on with life and work hard to accomplish my goal of becoming a Parole officer.

Whoa!, that sounded just like myself this semester. I, was also doing a re-entry back to U.O.G. but when I went to admissions the lady said that I had to do a medical clearance first. So, I did. Went back on Monday, to think I was going to register because that was what they needed, no. I cleared myself from the nurse tried to turn my re- entry form at admissions, they told me that I should have turned the form in a week early due to processing. But they would not take my form unless, I was cleared at the nurse's office. So, again I had to come back four days later, mind you that this during late registration where all the classes I would have like to take were closed. I had a back up plan, meaning other classes to subsitute for the classes that were closed. Lucky, I had my classes all on the late afternoons which, is more convienent for me and my lifestyle.
