I'm back.
So I found out recently that I have been accepted back at UNCC for the fall. For the first time in a long time I'm really excited about the future and it feels so good to have a focus instead of feeling like I'm floating in the middle of the ocean. My major is Physics and Optical Science and if all goes as planned I will graduate in 2011. I spent so long at CP with no real direction, in fact I earned 4 associates while I was there basically because I didn't know what I wanted to do/wanted to do everything and figured I should just keep taking classes. I have my Associates of General Education, Associates of Science, Associate of Arts, and an Associates of pre-English Studies (earning this one was a complete accident). A part of me is kind of ashamed to have taken this long with my education, especially when almost all of my peers have a bachelor's already but I rationally know that a.) I'm still young and b.) even If I wasn't, it's never too late. I met with my advisor at UNCC today and she was so nice and encouraging (the campus has changed drastically since the last time I was there, I couldn't believe it). I think I'm ready for it, I'm ready to study something that genuinely interests me, and I think I can get my priorities straight this time, but if any of you want to give me a little pep talk right about now, that would be fine too.
