That nothing's working out right..
You thought this was going to be a nice, happy post? Well, it's totally not. It's amazing how one little thing NOT happening can change everything that you've been planning and getting your hopes up for.
This morning I was informed that I was not accepted into the London Study Abroad program. I am put on the waiting list and can only go and be officially accepted if one of the people who HAS been accepted drops out. Which, according to the director, 10-30% of people accepted drop out. (mostly for financial reasons) So, there is a slight chance that I could still be accepted.....
So the director told me to come to the prep class anyways, but I can't technically add it to my roster and therefore, I can't drop my Career Explorations class, which I totally hate and is COMPLETELY worthless, and still be considered a full time student..
This just blows. I've never wanted something more than I wanted this. I should have known when I had that nightmare about not getting in that it was probably going to come true. I'm upset that I got my hopes up so much.. Now I don't know what to do except pray and hope that someone drops out because they can't afford it.
So, a few things:
ReplyDelete~My boss said that the BYU Career Explorations class really helped him and was not a waste of time. Look where he is now! ha
~College generally takes 4 years, so I would say you have time. Just don't get married if you still haven't done study abroad.
~And also, what a sad sentiment! "I pray that people drop out because they can't afford it."
