Rumor in my radio class is that the group podcast assignment that was assigned early October is due tomorrow rather than next Friday like all my group (who hasn’t started yet) thought. People are having a meltdown but I’m cool as a glass of lemonade. I don’t believe in rumors

 

I don't believe in rumors is a hilarious defense for your mental health and I love it

 

Finally going back to school next semester! It’s been about 3 1/2 years since I’ve been, but now that I’ve gotten/getting(?) my life back together, I’m ready and excited to start up with a more clear,mature, and grateful mindset. I still feel anxious especially since it’s been a while and also I’m not sure exactly what I want to do/be (and I’m fucking 26, going for a business degree with a minor In health administration), but I feel more confident in myself and my future.

 

It is due tomorrow

 

I dropped out of hs at 17 and didn't go to college until ten years later. It might seem really intimidating at first and take a couple months to get used to, but you'll be alright.

 

Had the meeting with the department advisor and she talked to me like "WTF are you worried about?" and internally I was screaming "JUST TELL ME WHAT TO DO WITH MY LIFE"

She gave me some ideas on what to start doing and what schools to look into, but ultimately deciding between two careers I am interested in. Part of me just wants to ask a magic 8 ball or something and go with that; I don't like big decisions.

 

are you me? for real though.

I'm so ready for this semester to be over. I'm sooo close but I have a fair amount of work to do before then. Then xmas break and next semester SHOULD be a smooth sailing semester (I only have to take 3 classes, one of which is online/express so only half a semester really) and I finally will have my AA. Then I need to start the daunting task of transferring to USF

 

Goodluck! I hope your transfer experience will be better than mine. I took an unwanted gap year due to terrible admins at the CC I went to.

 

oh noo

 

The next two weeks (one of classes and then finals) are my last as an undergrad. I don't know how to feel.

 

feel good that you don't have to dig more debt?

once i get my diploma i'm getting the most expensive and extravagant frame for that shit and requesting to be buried with it in my will

 

True.


Class at 830 almost everyday for four years.

 

I even had a class once that started at 7:20am.

 

that sounds like hell. i've struggled with all my 9am classes, even when i lived a 10 min walk from campus.

 

I'm pretty sure I said this a few pages back but I've never taken a class before 11 am lol. This semester there was one class that I considered but it started at freaking 8 something. campus is a good half hour away when you consider traffic and parking (maybe longer, parking is a bitch) so when you figure time it takes to get ready (30 min-1 hour) plus breakfast ideally, plus smoking ideally....I'd have to get up at an ungodly hour that I don't want to have to see for at least a few more years haha

 

My sincerest apologies man. I can't imagine the misery

 

I came up to campus at 6am anyway to do hw. No biggie. Lol. I slept 4 hrs per night.

 

2-4 hours of sleep is what I averaged my junior year of high school and not coincidentally it was the worst year of high school by far

 

I think I'm too far in to drop out and I'm mad I let it get to this point

 

*waves*

Me too buddy, me too.

 

I'm looking back on this weekend thinking, "why the fuck did I leave it to sunday night?" Like I get so stressed out and then I do everything possible to avoid studying

 

I've drank espressos and monsters and red bulls all weekend and read 1 1/2 pages

Keep it up guys, you're doing alright

 

I was talking to my buddy who graduated last semester and I was telling him how stressed I am and that this is the first time I've considered changing my major cause I hate my classes and he just started laughing and was like, "Dude of course you hate your classes!!! you'll be totally fine" and it seriously made me feel so much better knowing he was the same way

 

guys I did so much last minute work this week that its honestly impressive.
