Personal update

It helps that she actually enjoys it, whereas I despise being in water. I did have some other issues — one that required a biopsy — but, again, nothing major there. The first is completely changing the way I work, and the latter has made me more determined than ever to cut back on my use of social media.

Tickets, flights, and hotel are already booked. My public speaking is definitely something I want to improve. Wanting to give myself a decent chance of success I opted for not one but three pitches.

Sometime in the next four weeks I should find out my fate. Hi Laura, I would love to follow how your business unfolds as you build it here in the states, particularly how you set up your Legal, Insurance, Financial and Tax practices and habit-building around those subjects.

A step-by-step from scratch would be awesome! Hi Rena! Oh goodness, I remember going through all that with my hubby. He received the travel and work permit stuff back pretty quickly. It felt like the rest took forever. The temp green card came in 4 months or so but the permanent one took 18 months and 2 extensions. We actually got our congressman involved because there had been no movement for 6 months.

All good now though. I am so happy for you being able to move forward with your business!!! Congratulations on your success this year. May your health improve because we do need you and your advise God bless you and loved ones.

I know what a struggle that has been. So many vibes and intentions and tons of positive energy sent your way on that working out for all of you. Sam being away so much must be a little hard on all of you. Good thing football only lasts six weeks. So many posts about it on Social Media to waste my time and data.

Homework gets so much worse as kids go up in grades, here. Think that the School Board forcing her to go to school in your district is terrible? Just wait until you see how homework progresses throughout the years. I almost forgot the best part!! I know you love how American schools have celebrations for everything. Well, I see Scout is already sporting Halloween wear. Those are pretty cool because they give parents a safe place to take their children Trick-or-Treating. They usually do. There are almost always fun games with cheesy little prizes for candy or small toys.

The College of Charleston recognizes that as a community, many of its members use first names other than their legal names to identify themselves. Our campus began a phased implementation of a Preferred First Name process in Fall A preferred first name is a name that you commonly use that is different from your legal first name. Other than cases where legal name is required, this is the name that will be used whenever possible in the course of College of Charleston business and education.

The ultimate goal of this implementation is to display the preferred first name wherever legal name is not required. Currently, your preferred first name will appear on:. The preferred first name may be up to 25 characters and is limited to alpha characters A-Z and a-z and a space, apostrophe ' or hyphen -. Individuals should refrain from any of the following in their preferred name:. Inappropriate use of the preferred first name including but not limited to avoiding legal obligation or misrepresentation may be cause for denying use of preferred names.

The College of Charleston reserves the right to deny or remove the record and use of any preferred first name that is deemed inappropriate. Once a request is approved, the preferred first name may appear incrementally in the systems referenced above during the to hour processing period. To correct your date of birth on your academic record, students must present a signed Date of Birth Correction Request form along with the following appropriate original documentation to the Office of the Registrar.

The College of Charleston reserves the right to request further evidence to authenticate identity for all date of birth correction requests. To correct your social security number on your academic record, students must present a signed Social Security Number Correction Request form along with the following appropriate original documentation to the Office of the Registrar.
