I called the Center for Learning, the place that issues the MHRT/C, today. Perhaps a bit obsessive, but I needed to make damn sure that my faxed official transcript would be suitable. If it wasn't, I'd already be on the road to UMF to get another official transcript, and this time, I would drop it off in Augusta myself. Well, the faxed transcript ( Read more... )

I'm glad it's the weekend. I do not want next week to come. At all.

I was supposed to have $750 in there, but no, I have $746.XX in there because of a $4 "maintenance fee". It makes me want to switch banks even faster (I've wanted to, but I was waiting until the fall to do so).
