Moving and School

I finally was accepted to SUU like the day before Christmas. I also was offered a pretty nice scholarship and was able to get Kaden one as well. I would like to send a huge THANK YOU to Melinda for all of her financial aid help. School started January 4th, so of course we didn't start packing until December 30th. I was amazed at how everything worked out for us though. We emptyed our little home into one bedroom at Penn and Nancy's and packed up our essentials to take to Aunt Dianes. Yes we are now currently residing in Aunt Dianes trailer and by the look of things we will be camping out there for a few months. We would really love our own place but due to the lack of jobs for college students in Cedar and the truck bill we haven't been able to get rid of camping is our only option at the moment. I call living at Aunt Dianes camping because that is what if feels like. Our stuff is ever where and in no order at all. Free rent is a small price to pay for the decision we made to be poor college students. It will take us a little time to adjust but we will eventually get used to it. We just keep reminding ourselves how important it is to receive an education and how there are way more people out there worse off then we are. We know how blessed we are to even be going to school right now so we are pretty happy with that. By the way, Tiffany absolutely loves the snow, but really misses being able to run around outside. She doesn't have any friends to visit up here either so she mostly just sleeps all day now. We plan on taking her on walks every day now to help make her happier, so far it has only happened twice.

I have only been at SUU for two weeks now but i absolutely love school. My program is so amazing! The teachers that have all are specialists on their subjects and have PHDs its such a refreshing change compared to UNLV. Most of my teachers their were actually grad students who could care less about their subjects. I feel like the education program is perfect for me I am already applying to get accepted in and everything the only problem i have is trying to get my UNLV credits and hours to count towards things at SUU but i am sure i will get all of that resolved eventually. I have also made a few friends already in some of my classes and i love seeing people from the valley around campus it is such a nice atmosphere for kaden and i to be in. Kaden doesn't feel quite the same way about his classes at the moment because he is taking some pretty useless ones, but he does enjoy his criminal justice one and he is hoping right not to be able to get into a PTA program. Tomorrow i have an interview for the education program. Wish me luck!
