Taking the Tour tomorrow! And acceptance update.

So I am sitting in my living room preparing for my tour tomorrow of Grafton.  I'm dead nervous and I don't know how it'll be....luckily for me, my boyfriend Tim is going to be coming too!  I'll try to get some pictures for you guys so you can see what it looks like.

I just finished reading the manual, and I must say, reading it is DEFINITELY worthwhile!  I know it's intimidating, but it is in very plain English and tells you EVERYTHING you need to know.  It also informs you on who to contact for different issues etc. and what your rights are.  For instance:  did you know as a Job Corps student, you are considered a Federal Employee?  Crazy, isn't it?  Might explain why the pay is so low.  (I kid, I kid).

But yeah.  Tomorrow I should know more, so that's good!  I'll keep you posted!

Now, onto the acceptance drama.  I have, once again, been assured by my Admissions Counselor that I have been accepted.  She even sent me part of the email of the person who confirmed it for her.  Turns out it was just a misunderstanding...so....who knows.

I requested to not start til after Makenzie's (Tim's 8 year old daughter) birthday.  This will be my first birthday with her, and I want to be there for her; and since the first weekend you can't take off, I was nervous.  My Admissions Counselor agreed that it was important, so she asked about it at the center.  They said chances are I wouldn't be starting until after that anyway (since it's in about 2 weeks) so I'm good :).

Hope you all have a great day!  I'll update more soon!
