Well. The majority of the past few days have been spent picking and petitioning classes, deciding what job I want to take, while deciding what I want to do with my future. I only managed to get into Intermediate Algebra and send an application to Petco, but yesterday I decided to drop ALL of my college plans to just find a job and work for at least a year before heading back to school.
I know dropping out of college like that doesn't exactly get a good rep, but I'm one of those sad, sad exceptions who's experience in socializing takes a priority over education. It's been this way since grade school. I'm terrifying of people. I can't bring myself to speak up in front of a classroom. I'm always to scared to ask for help or answer questions or even attend classes sometimes. This social anxiety a huge problem that I feel I need to fix before doing something that could potentially affect my future. I need to learn to socialize and talk to people if I ever want to get in the career that I want. So. My only solution right now is to find a few jobs, gain some work/etc. experience, THEN, head back to school. I need to learn how to work with people. Earning money along the way is also a good incentive, so this is clearly a flawless plan.
Of course, I could always take a part-time job and be a part-time student, right? After looking through a list of requirements for transfer students, it seems that they consider the amount of class/units you take per semester. That would require me to be a full time student. Which means I shouldn't take a job, the one thing I consider very important at this point. Not only that, I honestly do not have the nerve to handle such a workload like that right now. It's not gonna work out. After talking with someone, it seems it'd work better to my advantage if I took the time off completely. After all, I'm taking this time to gain some work experience in the field, gain a better understanding of what I want to do, stuff like that. That's good enough reason for any committee for the time off.
So this is the plan I'm going with now. Besides, I'm all against spending craploads of money when my educational plans are shaky at best. I think it's better this way.
Getting back into school shouldn't be hard, I think. My only greatest worry is math, but that's one of my stronger points. I also have a math book I could always look over ahaha I'm such a nerd.
So yeah. Making this entry public, because I know there are people out there who are in the same situation.
Woke up at 2. My plan to get cleaning in the morning backfired horribly. I might have to resort to using this as an alarm clock

Her I go, disappearing for the rest of the day wooosh
