Oh good.........

So, today was quite the interesting day considering my 15 minute meeting with my advisor regarding my anatomy grade may have very well changed the course of what I want to do with my life. My GPA isn't as high as it should be because I took stupid pre-nursing classes my freshman year that I didn't do so hot in....so second semester freshman year, I changed my major...but the damage had already been done, so my GPA is suffering because of that first semester. They aren't counting my anatomy class that I took over the summer for anything, not credits or anything.....except as a grade, so now I have a D on my record but it doesn't count for anything....suckfest, I know, and my advisor doesn't even understand it. But, on the plus side I can still do grade forgiveness for my anatomy class that I took here and hopefully wipe out that failing grade and get a decent grade my THIRD time around.....anatomy is going to ruin my life. But with my GPA at a 2.73, it will be really hard to get into grad school, so she started giving me some other options that I could do. She told me raising my GPA in time to apply for grad school is definitely doable and that they might not be looking at my overall GPA, but my GPA for my major classes which I've been doing really well in, but what I could also do is take a break from school and work as a Speech-Language Pathologists aide for awhile and then go back and apply, and that job being on my record will look really good on a graduate school application. Also, since I told her I'm interested in working with deaf children, she mentioned that I could get a Master's in Deaf Education considering it might be less competitive and more along the lines of what I actually want to do. So, I have plenty of things to decide on and now I feel like I'm stuck in trying to decide what I really want to do. I'm sure when I go back to her for Spring Advising, we'll talk more about it. But yeah, essentially I have to take anatomy again here, get that shit grade erased and raise my GPA to a decent one. So, I'm little frustrated and stressed, but I have time to figure it all out. Also, by the end of this semester I have to do a practicum, but I need at least a 3.0 GPA which I may not have by the end of the semester...so my advisor may have to work some magic in that area.

Well, other than that huge thing today, my car is all fixed! That's at least some good news so I'll get that back today. And we might finish the cake today....wish us luck!

I hope everyone else has a good day...

Loves around...
