I've had a hell of a summer, and the damn thing ain't over yet.
After my grandmother died, I didn't really get a chance to stop. My dad is her only surviving son and only member of her immediate family left [something he's had a hard time dealing with], so he is of course the executor of her estate. Well, it's been a hassel trying to settle her affairs. The woman has so much junk in her house-little old lady things like clown figurines and fake birds. Not to mention there's a gas leak, and the house perpetually reeks.
But all that aside, school is turning into the biggest struggle right now. I honestly don't get it. I'm an excellent student, I graduated from high school with Distinction, I was on the Dean's List both semesters at college, so why is transfering turning out to be so hard? Schools should be lining up to admit me! I'm trying to move from my private college to a state school since I just can't afford the tuition again this year, and I don't want to put that burden on my family, especially now when we're all already having a rough time. But I'm having to appeal my admission a second time-why? Because my high school counted algebra I part I and II and two seperate classes, but the state universities don't.
********.
And to top it off the professor whose recommendation I need to be admitted has left the private college to work somewhere else, and no one can give me any forwarding information.
So, I get to try to blast my way through the Admissions Appeals committee-AGAIN-and pray I can get in this time.
I don't know why this is happening, but I'm trusting in God the it'll be right in the end. He's gotten me through worse, afterall.
