hello,
i leave for school on the 12th. my grandmother just passed away yesterday and her funeral is on the 16th. i am planning to go to school (by plane) unpack my luggage a bit and find my classes, look about campus (i’m a firsttime freshman) get a little rest in, and then leave on charter bus on the 13th to go to my hometown where the funeral is held. its about a 4-5hr ride. then ill stay with relatives until the day of the funeral. the funeral is at 11am on the 16th,
and i start classes on the 17th.
my plan is to attend and then get on a bus at 6:00pm to go back to my school. I’d arrive at 3:00am. My first class is at 8:30am.
My question is, is this a good idea? should i not attend the funeral? the price is only about 100$ roundtrip. i am a bit concerned about the second bus trip back because it is 9hrs with 1 transfer. and GOD-Willing there will be no layovers i am praying.
basically would it be feasible to attend? i have no problem with sleeping 3-4 hrs and then getting up for class, but would that be horrible? my first class is a painting class (yay) for an hour. i wont get much rest between classes which i have until 5:00pm. i have like two 1-1.5hr breaks between classes.
do you think i should go? I do love my grandmother very much. a concern also is making it back on time to not be dropped from any classes from not attending, which they have the right to do my advisor told me.
please advise
i appreciate it . thanks and GOD Bless.
