Exhausted
Right now I am absolutely exhausted. I am not sure why. I think the rainy weather isn't really helping me. I was going to take a nap until 5, but I figured I would get some homework done. Then, as I sat here, I decided that I would write in here first.
I went over Cassie's Aunt's & Uncles house for Easter. They live in Troy, NY. Her family is really nice. I got an Easter basket from her parents and her grandparents. I am not sure when I will get around to eating it all. I am not a huge candy eater and I am trying to get into shape. I think Rob might get upset with me if he finds out I have been binging on candy when I am not in the gym. :o)
After searching for an internship for a while and dreading that I wouldn't find one, I found one! I am going to work as a lab assistant at the hospital. I am even getting paid for it, which is a bonus. I will be doing a lot of plating microbiology media and I will be taught phlebotomy, which will be neat. I am not actually being hired as an intern, but Dr. Semprebon said that it will be counted as my internship. I am really excited because it will give me some experience.
I have been thinking about Med-School a lot lately and I am not sure what to do. I don't exactly know how the process works and I am afraid that I won't get accepted into a program somewhere. My GPA isn't that great and that is one thing that they look at. I guess if I do really good on the MCATS that will work in my favor. I am really involved on campus, which is good. I hear that they look for well rounded individuals and I guess that I am alright.
My chances of getting in are very slim, but is seems like my family has a lot of faith in me. I am not sure why they do, but it is nice. I don't really accept failure or defeat well and I will be disappointed in myself if I don't get accepted. I get let down by others in life. I don't want to ever let myself down. Since I don't know if I will get accepted, that means that I need to prepare for Grad School as well. That means that I need to pay for the GRE's as well. That is two tests that I will have to pay for to take. Not to mention paying application fee's. I don't know.
I guess that I am just discouraged right now. College isn't exactly going the way I would like it to. I don't have the grades that I want. I want a 3.5 GPA and right now I don't have that. With the classes that I am taking this semester and the grades that I have right now, I think my GPA is going to go down again. I can't allow that to happen. I can't..... As it is looking right now I have B's in all my classes and I don't know what I have in Biochemistry.... all I know is that it is bad. I am hoping that my finals will help bring my grades up. I will have more time to study then I did for the mid-terms.
Well I guess I better go for now. I am going to get to my homework. I want to get as much done as I can before Friday. Howard is coming up to visit me and I don't really want to do homework if I can help it. Not to mention, getting homework done helps your grades out too, which is a goal of mine.
