And That Makes Two

.. Well, not yet.

In a week and a half, I will be returning home for the summer! Stoked, I know. I was ready for this term to be over about two or three weeks ago. The one thing I am dreading is finding a job, though. I'm probably the world's worst job finder.

With this year wrapping up, I'm probably half done my degree. I say half because there's a few ways I can go about it. Of course, I want to be done in the standard four year period. But I have an internship requirement that has some flexibility to it. Most of the people I've talked to recommended that I take a fifth year to do the internship. If I came straight to Ambrose after high school, I would be fully on board to take the extra year aside from my schooling so I can do the internship. But because I already have a year at the UofA and then a year of working, I really don't want to spend more time in my program than I have to.

So if things work out, this would be my plan.

I come back to Ambrose for year #3. Right after my third year, I go straight into internship for eight months. I would finish at around December, meaning my fourth year's fall term is spent interning. I can do this because I have a full semester's credit from the UofA. So after I finished my internship, I would still have a ~4 course last semester in which I graduate!

It would be tough because I don't get any sort of break between my third year to my internship, then to my final semester. However, if it means I can save a year, I am all for it. I'm not really a workhorse, but I do believe that if I set my heart to it, it's going to get done.

So, hopefully I plan out my courses out correctly, and that the school actually offers them (baffles me to think some courses aren't offered every year), so I can graduate in the Spring of 2014.

That's the plan!

Someone help me find a job, lol. T_T
