Last Friday I received my acceptance letter to Indiana State University. I start August 22nd. This coming Friday is my appt. to meet with my advisor about registering for classes and talking through financial aid. I'm nervous.
A lot of thoughts have been going through my head. For one, I applied for a nursing major and I don't really want to be a nurse. Everyone's telling me that I need to go for nursing because I'll always be in demand but I can't deal with blood or needles so that's my first stupid mistake.
Secondly, what if I can't make it through college financially? I live on my own and earn a little over minimum wage so most of my money goes to my house and the rest to my car. If I don't get any financial aid how am I going to succeed? There's no way I can.
I'm so uncontent with my life and I need a major change but it scares me to death. I'm comfortable in my little rut, as they say, and I can't even imagine experiencing something else.
I'm so excited to meet new people, see new places and expand my knowledge of all things in life but it's very nerve racking to think that your whole life is going to be turned upside down within a few weeks and you'll have no control over anything.
I may just be siking myself out like I always do when things change in my life.
That's all for now folks.
