Life.

Oh man, it's been a while, yes I know. Here's what has been going on in my LIFE. I changed my major to Communications. No it wasn't just a random change, I always had a thing for communications; and I kept it in the back of my head just in case nursing wouldn't work out for me. I mean, c'mon, I was made for communications. My social skills are superb and I actually enjoy public speaking. Easy breezy.

As soon as I decided my major change I started applying to schools; since obviously I've been at a CC for quite some time now I was more than eligible to transfer. In fact, I wont just be transferring empty handed but I will actually be leaving with me AA. It's not much but I least I'm getting something out my years spent at a CC. I've applied to CSULA, CSULB, Cal poly Pomona, Chapman and USC. I've got into all the Cal States I've applied to and now waiting for Chapman and USC's response. Waiting was never my best trait and it still isn't. This change was so important for me. I went from worrying about never being able to get into any schools to having numerous schools wanting me to be a part of their student body. I went from constantly worrying about not being able to get into any schools because of my nursing grades to worrying about which school I school attend this fall from the choices that I have been given. As the semester progresses I realized more and more that science wasn't for me. I never really got the best science grades, in fact I got the worst. But now as the semester is ending and professors let you know what you currently have in class; I realized that this was for me. I only have A's and B's this semester (mostly A's) and this just proves how much better off I am as a Comm major. Getting all those C's during my nursing period was a total mood killer and made me into one depressed student. I AM NOT A "C" STUDENT. That's just not who I am, I am an A/B student but never a C. My mood has gotten lighter, I am happier with myself, and I feel like I can succeed once again. Life will definitely throw rocks at you, but don't let it hit you and bring you down, just move to the side and carry on. The choices you make in life are so important, and the mistakes you make in life are just as important. But I think the most important thing you can get out of the choices and the mistakes you make in life are the decisions you make. You choose a path, life throws rocks at you, will you let it hit you and fall or will you stand up stronger and decide to carry on? I think I came to really understand what it means when people say "Gods plan is so much greater than what you have planned." So true.
