How Goes School

Well, I am proud to say I have filled out and submitted both my FAFSA (Free Application for Student Aid) and my WCC admissions forms. I should hear back from the college in a week or so when they've processed my application to let me know when I can schedule any placement tests I may need to take. I should also be hearing from them about whether or not there is anything else they need for my FAFSA eligibility. I hope there isn't anything else to fill out.

I won't know till July if I will get the financial aid though. The people in the financial aid office say I should receive full financial aid (a Pell Grant up to $5550 for 1 academic year). I should also receive an overview of potential federal student loans as well. I haven't discussed it with my Grandmother yet but I'm thinking if I do receive notice of getting full financial aid I may just stop the job hunt and focus solely on my jewelry making. We'll just have to see how things go... I'll keep y'all posted.

Jewelry Blog Is Up!!!

Well, I have officially decided to start up my own jewelry blog and since more people have viewed this one lately I decided to ship it. If you wish to check it out go my profile page and click on "Hana Creations". Or here's a link... Hana Creations.

It's my little space to talk about the jewelry I make, also I will post small tutorials here and there that I'll call Project Thursday. And yes, they will actually be posted on Thursdays. The projects will be simple beginner stuff, with the occasional harder lesson. There is already one up for Simple Beaded Earrings, but if you'd clicked on the link you already know that. Soon there will be a link to my ArtFire shop, whenever I finally get that up and running...

As for news about my trip, I afraid the only thing new is that I finally got off my butt to open a savings account. Still no real job, still no offers for a real job, and so far only one craft fair that I can enter for the holiday season. And it's in December... great help that is now. Why are these craft fairs so elusive. There's nothing posted online for my area.

Sorry, I felt like whining. Feel free to ignore it.
