I got soul but I'm not a solider.

I was reading this bulletin board where people who are applying to grad school are posting and I'm now terrified of not getting into any of the programs I want to get into. They're griping about having a horrible GPA of 3.6. Um, mine is nowhere near that, cumulatively at least. I am aiming for straight A's this semester but even doing that this semester and next isn't going to raise my cumulative GPA to anything impressive. Even if it does, they'll be looking at my overall transcript and it's really kind of scary. At least if I do stay in Riverside and go into the MFT program at CBU it'll be a solid degree. As the semester continues and I keep going to my two Dr. Lewis classes, the more I think maybe it wouldnt' be such a bad thing to stick around here and learn more specifically how to be a counselor from him and colleagues he really respects. I don't even want to think about how I'm going to afford to go to graduate school... Even if I can put all tuition and books on loans and grants and whatnot, I have to be able to pay rent somehow. For the time being, I'll just keep plugging along and daydreaming about my trip to Europe that I get to take after I graduate.

Everyone should get an iPod. :) I made a closing playlist and I'm so stoked to bust it out this week... I love my store this week too. Tonight was ridiculously fun and it was awesome that I got to leave at 8pm. I haven't seen Scrubs in forever and it's delicious to go to bed early. I only have two classes tomorrow which is g-reat because I can totally get homework for this week and what I know of for next week done before I meet up with a friend in the afternoon and then go to small group and see about going to that one pub after that. Thursday is no classes and Friday I only have one class. It's not that I don't like school, it's that it's always nice to have a little break. It's going to give me a chance to feel ahead again too. While watching my six hour tape of The West Wing. Ah, Monday night marathon nights, how I love thee.

Since I just wrote about three topics in one paragraph, I'm going to go work on that going to bed early thing. I'll leave you to ponder this: next year at this time, there will at least be a screenplay about my life, if not an actual movie. Jealous? You so totally should be. :)
