crossing my fingers...
So I researched and went through what courses are being offered this semester. I'm not liking what my schedule is going to look like in the spring. I'm not going to post it up just yet cuz I want to finalize it with Vanessa this afternoon after training (to which I am not looking forward to). I want to take courses that will satisfy my major and three minors and my general ed requirements too. I wish that they let you take more than 17 credit hours rather than it be the max before u pay 200 bucks per credit hour. I know that might happen to one of my AT practicum classes which is total bs. More ways this school is taking my money away from me than helping me with scholarships, cuz apparently everyone else around me seems to be on a free ride to go to this shithole.
*breathe*
So yeah remember when I was going on about transfering or at least think about it. Well I'm going full force and applying to not one but two schools now. Utica College and SUNYIT. I told my mom about it who in turn is EXTREMELY supportive about it, surprisingly so and the rest of my family knows too. It's understandable that I would want to go to Utica College cuz of their PT program, which I am praying real hard that I get in and can afford at the same time. It greatly relates to my current major athletic training. Originally I've always wanted to be a Physical Therapist but the amount of schooling you'd have to pursue before med school turned me away til I heard about UC's PT program. Once ure in the program u graduate with a bachelors in health science and automatically move onto grad school for PT at UC. So that pretty much takes out the stress for me to apply for grad school after college.
But why SUNYIT? Well there's the obvious reason and that's Dave, but there's also more to it than that as well. Their Health Info Management program is pretty good, and I figured that if I don't get into UC because I didn't get accepted or can't afford it, I'd go to SUNYIT, that is if they accept me too at their school. It's not athletic training or physical therapy but as long as I am studying in a field that has to do with the health field or medical field I'm happy. Granted I may not be bright but I know I would work my ass off (as if that's something new to me nowadays =P). Either way I really want to come back home but two things would prevent me from doing that and that is if I can't afford either school (which with IT I don't think it should be too much a problem) or I don't get accepted.
I like Limestone and all but I feel that if I stay here for another 2 1\2 more years, I won't grow at all. The drama that takes place here is getting ridiculous. And Dare I say it, but lacrosse is no longer fun anymore. It has some highlighting days but I don't want to go to practice constantly feeling like I'm walking on eggshells, not knowing if our team did something wrong and that everyone has to pay for it. Not that its happened so much yet *knock on wood*. I guess its residual resentment for being benched last year. This year it looks promising but then again coach can still have his head up his ass. I wish I tried harder my senior year looking for colleges.
I dunno I'm ranting again. To put it in simplified terms, these are my intentions as far as my college career goes...
I will DEFINITELY come home if:
~I get accepted to UC can and afford it
~" " " to IT and can afford it
~I get screwed over with lacrosse again
~I get screwed over with Athletic training
~can't afford Limestone anymore
I will STAY at Limestone if:
~I don't get accepted to UC or can't afford it (gotta have both to go home)
~" " " " to IT or can't afford it
~Play or even start in Lacrosse
~get more scholarship $
~Athletic training is marginally not driving me insane
*sigh*
I've already sent emails to both schools. I can only hope for the best.
To end on a bright note though, I'm coming home in 6 days!
