my mom sent me this quote after i wrote her saying i need to take my class over again that i didn't do well in. although i know they are disappointed in me, i know they are supporting me and that is making all the difference. basically what happened is i didn't get a 75% so i need to take the class again but can't until the spring. i also can't take any other classes till i take this one. so then instead of starting my second year of school in january, i can't start it till the FALL!! this means i won't be able to graduate until spring term '09. this is devastating and i feel like a loser. but it'll all be okay. it's not the end of the world.
i have a lot of things i've thought of that i will be able to do now that i don't have a class next term (to make myself feel better about the situation):
- work more and make some money
- workout more consistently
- dodgeball draft league on tuesday
- read more books
- go to shows
- cook more
- see the vanebo's new house at the coast
- new job maybe
- going to vegas with my sister
- take the train up to seattle!
it's hard for me to be positive about this but i am trying. basically all my plans for the next year have changed and been postponed. it is sad. i will still be a nurse eventually and a great one at that! it's just going to take a little longer. i have a few friends in the same position as i so i'm not alone in my misery.
oh well what am i gonna do? can't change it, just gotta roll with it!

aww, sucks, sorry to hear about that. but, things always happen for a reason, it's really hard to see it from the beginning, but just think about how many things have happened to you in your life so far, and then think about how many of those things happened just the way you expected, in a straight and easy path? probably none right! just look at me, last august i was all prepared to start house-hunting, and look how much trouble and confusion and u-turns and detours i took to finally get to where i am now, looking back i never could have predicted that it would take me all those twists and turns to finally arrive where i am today.
that's my two cents for today, just think about how many other things you can do during the next year, that's exciting!
ps - are you back home now? we gotta go out!
Aww, dude, that sucks. But I believe that everything happens for a reason and our experiences make us stronger. And just think, now you have time this spring to make a trip home (just thought I'd add that to your list b/c it looks as though you forgot it).
By the way, Lance and I visited Amy on Saturday and she asked about you.
I can't bear thinking of next term without you.... :((
