     Topic: Well now THAT was  a shock to the system!     Posted: 03 March 2008 at 2:19pm | 
 
 
  
   
   
   Late morning I toddled off to the Massey Uni Albany campus to see if I could beg my way into a paper as a late enrolement. Now that I am about to go to graveyard I can attend lectures.
 
Not only did I manage to beg into the paper but I was hustled off down to the lecture that was in progress and found myself frantically scribbling notes as I caught the last 15 mins of the sociology lecture!    Then it was off to the Dr's office to get all the info I needed, photocopies of the some reading, instructions and a very gratefully accepted 1 week extenstion on my first assignment.
 I guess I could say that my begging went a lot better than expected! At least I'll be on time for lectures and tutorial tomorrow.
 But yay! I am now a brand spanking new (though not quite yet offical) uni student. w00t!

   I'm finally (and hopefully) going to finish my BA.  I was majoring in History when I started and should be able to have all those papers credited over to Massey. 
 
Will probably change track though to a major in Sociology. It's another step on my way towards the police!

   Yeah it was a good shock once I got over finding myself in the lecture! Good thing I had my diary and pen with me so I could take some notes!    
I feel like a kid on the first day of school, went and got a new folder for my huge pile of readings, lecture notebook for all my notes and geek me HAD to get new pens and a pencil case!   I am such a dag!

   Welcome to Massey Albany! I've been there for the last 2 years part time after 3 years in Palmy... You'll be at the main campus? 
 
 Congrats on getting into your paper, and finishing off that degree. Good luck with the crediting of your papers.
