Can't Wait!!!

A few months ago, I asked my mom if she could complete two tasks for me.

  1. Get tickets to the UW vs. Notre Dame game
Both of these things needed to be done online at certain times of the day that I needed to be teaching, so I was unable to do it by myself. My mom made a valiant effort in trying to get the Notre Dame Tickets and after going through the whole process was kicked off in the final step of getting the tickets. When she went back to try again, all the tickets were gone. She even went as far as to call UW and tell them what happened, but it didn't work. NO tickets!

The following week it was time to sign up for the photography class that was only offered for small amount of people and could help me and my new career go far. She yet again tried her hardest, but was kicked off when she entered a ' in my username. She was pretty distraught after trying for the second time to get me something and not being able to come through.

I called her later in the day to find out how the registering went and she told me what had happened. I asked her if it put me on a waiting list and she said no, so she went back and registered me again. That night when I checked my email, I found out I was on the wait list twice, so I wrote to the wonderful Karen Russell and told her that I would still like to be wait listed but at number 35 not 58, so she took me off the later number left me on 35 and also told me that there were many people that had that same problem, many duplicate entries, and that the class was full after 3 min of registration. I crossed my fingers and hoped to get in.

Well today was the day that I got an amazing email. She opened more spots for her class and now I'm in! I get to start the class in January. I'm so excited!!!

So Mom, all your hard work did pay off. Thanks!

I had to come back and add to my comment. OMG! That's such an awesome class! I was looking at it, because it was suggested to me, but hesitated at the price. LMK how it goes ok?
