Hoppy Easter
So, for those who believe, I hope everyone has a Happy Easter. For those who don't...enjoy the chocolate. ha ha.
My plans keep falling apart. The things I try to set in motion never end up falling into place, and I'm constantly having to rearrange and change my plans. I understand that's all a part of life, and I also understand that for every obstacle I take care of, a new one will present itself, but I wish I could get a better grasp on how to get the ball rolling. I have applied to transfer to a major University, and I didn't get in by .06 points on my GPA. If I had gotten that one A instead of a B, I would've gotten in. Ugh. Now, I'm trying to scramble and figure out what I'm going to do about the next semester. The economy is bad, and I'd hate to not work full time for another 6 months just to try and make up .06 points on a GPA. If I get into the University, my parents have given me a proposal that is very hard to turn down. They didn't offer this when I started college, and I've always had to pay my own way (I paid for my own car, starting when I was 16, and I began paying them rent when I turned 18 until I moved out), so this offer completely surprised me, but my parents (I guess) are tired of watching me struggle. So, they said, if I get into University (they call it "a real college", ha ha), I could quit my job and go to school full out (I've been doing the part time thing the whole time, so it's taking me longer than most) just to get finished. As I said, the economy is bad, and as much as the last President and current President have boasted about increased financial aids for college kids...it's still not there (which, if anyone ever wonders why I'm not a fan of the War, it's because in one sweep Congress granted 85 BILLION dollars for that, but took them nine months, dozens upon dozens of debates, and earmarks and handouts just to raise 10 million in grants...yeah, they have our best interests in mind...we can be stupid, as long as we have the best guns, ugh). Anyway, rant over. SO, financial aid is hard to come by. Parents offer to pay (a truly amazing offer). And I don't get in by .06.
So I'm trying to figure out the next step, the next plan. I suppose one more semester won't be so bad...and if I can, I'll try and get more than two classes in, so maybe I can go far above that .06 they want, just to be sure. I'm also working on the relationship stuff. I'm narrowing down what I want, and getting good at identifying what I don't want. It doesn't make things easier, believe me, but it certainly has saved me from wasting time and emotions on those that I just don't need to be wasting time and emotions on. Of course, that also means the sex life is still in drag mode, but I'm not so upset about that just yet...I may be in a week or two, but not right now, ha ha. Anyway, have a good Sunday, everybody. I'm out.
