so... it's 2:05 in the morning. i went to bed at 12:15 last night and that was the first night in 9 weeks that i have gone to bed before 1:30. i was really excited for myself, but seeing as i was up until four in the morning the night before, and for tonight, it is already 2:07, so i don't think getting to bed early last night at 12:15 really did

Hey, this is Elisabeth from DH, I snooped around and found your journal...let me know if you'd rather I didn't friend you...

That said...it sucks you don't get to go to college where you wanted to go. And you seem to be going through the proper grieving steps, which I would call "taking it well" (for the record, my version of taking it well can involve extreme screaming fits if they help you deal). Is it possible to transfer there after a year or two? Or put off going to "real" college, take a few courses at community college to bring up your GPA, and try again?

Or would you rather just get to college as quickly as possible, stick it out for 4 years, and get your degree as simply as possible?

And that makes me realize...I don't know what you want to major in. Enlighten me?

hey there. my journal is competely open to everyone. it isn't interesting enough to warrent privacy.

thanks, you are right about the "taking it well" thing. your comment made me realize that if i need to be sad, that i just need to do it and not worry about other people.

I will go to school right away, and if i really still want NYU, then i'll transfer. it will all work out, but comunity college or taking time off really isn't an option; i have 7-8 years of school left. i want to dual major in history and finance, then go to law school for either civil of business law. it probaly doesn't sound like a very interesting career path, but i love law and business.

Thanks for your comment, i'll be alright, but for now, everything has just been sucky.

Alrighty then. I'll be reading and commenting...I'm actually pretty good at commenting, as most of the people on my flist will tell you.

And I'm glad I could help, even a little.

That actually does sound interesting, and if you actually pull it off, you'll have quite the list of qualifications right out of college. I'd say just keep in mind that you're basically deciding to go to school for a total of 20 years, and it might make a world of difference to take a year off somewhere in the next 8 years to either tour the world or do something else you've always wanted to do. I took a quarter off (more for work/circumstances than fun, but still...) and I highly recommend it.

And...yeah, thinks suck now. *trite-ness warning!* But, you never know what kind of opportunities you'll have waiting for you because this one didn't pan out. I've found that the more open you are to what ends up happening in your life, the easier and better it is. (Aren't you glad I gave you a "trite-ness warning"?
