PHL 100/ART 100

The title indicates am presently taking lower division units.

I got an A in my philosophy class. Thank God.

I started Art 100 and they provided me with the text how awesome is that? when i checked the book's price on Thursday evening I was at a loss. A new one was $120 and a used copy was $96 there's no way I had that much money on me, and am not even talking about the new copy but the used one.

Art 100 is going. It's about what art is and the history of art. I never dreamt of taking such classes. But never say never I guess? It's all about Vincent Van Gogh, Picasso, The Monalisa and just a variety of artists.


Did you know that the most expensive work of art that ever sold was Vincent Van Gogh's in 1990? and that it sold for 82.5 million!!! I mean who has that much moola (money)?

Hmm...which reminds me I bought a lotto ticket last week let me go online and see if I won something..anything lol I remember growing up when my dad and I went to the city he'd always buy me a lotto ticket and I'd always win a little money, no kidding. I guess I've some lucky streak in me after all.

Apparently poetry is an art of sorts and so that makes me an artist? lol ok fine an amatuer poet. Not bad at all eh?

I've a discussion due on Wednesday and then I need to respond to two of my classmates discussions by Saturday.

I hope and pray to God I make an A in this class. I should. I was looking at my grades and it's not looking good for the home team. Something's gotta give. Grad school is a must.

I'm looking and praying about an issue. God help me. May your will be done

te amo,
Stu nursy

Miracle on October 1st

I just found out very good news!!!

I was supposed to be off school this month and byb that I mean I currently I am off school. The class for this month started on Monday and I've not been to class so hello? I am off school, no? I was actually looking forward to it, the extra money and not to mention the sleeping in and free days. Oh, the utter pure bliss of lazing around.

Why was I going to be off this month? was it planned? no it wasn't planned I was scheduled for POL 100 and then it got cancelled due to low enrollment. I panicked at first because that could only mean one thing, my graduation was going to get bumped up again. I sent a couple of e-mails back and forth to the academic advisor, called the Evaluations dept and sent e-mails and everything concluded despite POL 100 getting cancelled I still met my 180 quarter units requirement to graduate with the BSN. I was thrilled, of course! One less class but wait a minute I could have ended up taking a class I didn't need if it didn't get cancelled. But that's why am God's child, He got me out of it.

After all that going back and forth with the academic advisor and evaluations dept. my boss got wind of it and contacted the student services VP who in turn assigned someone to run a query on my classes and determine if I needed the POL 100 classes or not and why my present classes were scheduled until June, 2009.

The person assigned got right on it and look in to it and run queries she did. She called me this afternoon and offered me to take a class this month (Oct) and in Dec (which is the month I was scheduled to be off school). Of course, I'm more than willing to take classes during the open spots. Taking these two classes moves the last class on my undergrad degree schedule from June, 2009 to March, 2009. I'm beyond myself with joy unspeakable but above all gratitude to God for everything. And of course thanks to my boss for taking it upon herself to look further in to the issue. I thank God for all the angels He puts in my life.

So no extra cash forthcoming this month but the end of school is clearly lighting up the end of the proverbial tunnel.

This also means after my last class in March, 2009. I'll immmediately study for my boards and am trusting God to pass them pre-graduation/commencement ceremony. Woot!!!

Very interesting because just last night I did my QT and read that "God's way works" and the whole message was on reaping what I sow. If I sow to the flesh then I definitely will reap destruction but if I sow to the spirit then I will reap eternal life and many more great things. Oh God I desire with every little bit of me to live for you all the days of my life.

I give You ALL praise, glory and honor for your kindness towards me, patience with me, provision for me, protection to me, steadfast love for me, sufficient grace, mercies that you renew every morning. Thank you God for every little thing I give YOU all glory, honor and praise.
