Summer is for Passion. Winter is for Romance
Sorry for not doing much writing lately. College life has been distracting me. Today was the last day of classes and it's now that my adviser informs me that I can't graduate as a creative writing major. I'm a junior. Come August, I'll be a senior. And NOW she tells me this?! My college doesn't have a lot of creative writing classes, I've only been able to take 1 because for one reason or another, I haven't been able to take other. Like, I needed to take another course just to graduate, or the class was full. NOW I'm informed I should have been more aggressive in getting in, I could have told the professor it's for my major. I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW I COULD DO THAT!!! So now, because of my adviser's fuck-up, I can't graduate on time. The only alternative is to switch to a literature major. I'm not gonna do it.
I did not pick this college and decide to come here to be a literature major. I've wanted to do writing since I was in elementary school. It is not up for negotiation. I've tried to see if there were other things I could do to pass on time and I've gotten no help. So, I'm transferring out. But this isn't the only reason I'm leaving. My school was beautiful with rich traditions and so much fun. Now the administration just keeps making one bad decision after another. I won't go into detail and bore you, but quite frankly, I've had enough. I spent most of today and last night crying because of all the stress this threw upon me, and I never cry.
Thankfully, my parents are being supportive. Although it took me a while to have them realize just how bad it is for me right now, how much they failed me. It's my job to pick courses to further my requirements. It's their job to make sure my decisions are correct and inform me of what I need. Oh, did I mention I've had 3 advisers since I got here? I got 'lost in the shuffle' as my adviser put it. *sigh* So my parents helped me decide on a new school to go to. It'll be in my hometown so it's close and I can work nearby to make extra cash.
So my dear and loyal readers, please excuse my absence for as long as it may last. I promise upon my return, I shall bless your patience with many a tale, gruesome and glorious.
