Ahh Louisiana's education system

I found out a couple of days ago that i only have to take 10 hours to graduate in the spring, which got me very excited. Then, today it dawned on me, i have to be registered for at least 12 hours to receive my scholarship which pays for my tuition. Man, i have to take an extra class, "extra work", just for money.

I love i,t they could just let me take my 10 hours and subtract the proportionally equivalent of the unused money out of the scholarship and save themselves some money, but no, that would seem too logical for the great state of Louisiana.

There is something good to come from this unfortunate mishap. The 2 hours that get me to my 12 hour minimum are just that 2 hours to use for whatever I want. Can we say easy A. To add on to this positive notion, i will use my 2 hours in basic scuba. yes i said scuba.

What will i need this for you ask? Justin's parents are planning on doing a family trip to Florida next year where we will have the option to go diving if we want. I will already be certified. Thanks for paying Louisiana!

    well, isnt that nice of LA. they wouldnt even consider me for grant money. it was something about even though i provided every bit of information that they wanted they still came back and said "we cant prove your parents arent giving you cash on the side" sorry i am still bitter about that

    That is interesting. Maybe LA likes girls better.
