I am going to be suspended from school. 

i am currently suspended from school.  that is to say, i had to "withdraw" because my grades are uh, pretty shitty but it is not like i have just been slacking off and partying non-stop, i have had some personal issues to deal with and i filed a petition for an academic exemption but it was rejected.  :x

so now i'm living with my parents, and i have to take two courses at a community college and complete them with an a minus average to be able to apply for re-admission, and i kind of feel like a failure at the moment.  i have not told anyone i know in real life about this because i find it rather embarrassing. but at least i have more time to work on the book i am trying to write. i am trying to see the positive aspects of this extra "year off", but there aren't many.

love,
anna

I was put on academic suspension for a year from my first college, with the option to reapply. I decided I hadn't really been happy there to begin with, which sort of contributed to the suspension to begin with, and just took the year off, and then applied to a different school. I'm happier now, academically anyway.

Anyway, don't feel too embarrassed. You're certainly not the only one this shit happens to, and it doesn't make you a failure, or stupid, or any other shit like that. There are always options, and ways to pick yourself back up.

it's not even a matter of feeling stupid, more a matter of feeling smart but lazy and unmotivated. and i know my parents are pretty disappointed that this happened, which doesn't help matters any.

but i secretly always thought i'd end up dropping out of school at some point and end up doing something more awesome, anyway.

nevertheless, thanks for the support. <3

Same deal here.  I knew I was smart, but I had no drive to study or attend most of my classes.  My social naivete (sic) was causing me to be ostracized by a lot of the kids in my hall, and I hated the way classes were structured where I was.  Found out I was going to be inavoidably put on academic probation the following year, cried for a good hour, and pretty much stopped going to classes.  I broke down for a week or two trying to figure out where to go next, found an alternative route, and took it.  I was kinda sulky for the first 3 months or so, but once I got adjusted to the effects of my new decision, I became a pretty genial dude and have been since.

Today, a girl came into my store and tried to insult my coworker and I by asking, "If you have a degree, why are you a clerk in a shop?" Generally, she was pretty condescending, but hey, she was trying to build a catbus costume for an anime convention. I guess that means you're entitled to be rude to the people who are helping you while in said shop. It doesn't matter that I'm taking a year or so off to work before heading off to grad school in art history/museum studies and that my coworker does freelance web design and also owns two organizations, one for hiking and the other is a non-profit for orphaned kids, it just matters that we're working in a shop. Nope.

Yeah but see, my grades are good, I am totally engaged in my school, and absolutely don't want to not be taking classes. I took my time off before starting school, and definitely don't feel the need to take any more time off. Plus, there's no way I'd want to go anywhere else, I'd have to take more than one class at once and couldn't go bouldering after lunch every day. I just got arrested while on campus and the school is all agro about it.

Fuckers.

I think everyone has a bad college semester.   When I was hired as an RA, (sophomore year -- served until junior year, then I got fired) I ended up getting a 1.75 GPA for the Fall semester.   It totally dicked my cumulative, but whatever.   I was just overwhelmed with stuff and had some of the same things ya'll were talking about.   Working 20-30 hours a week, classes and the whole social life thing can be hard to balance.

OTOH,  Going on academic probation was a real motivator for me, and then I kicked it in gear.   Basically, I would have lost all my financial aid and not have been able to go to school had I fucked up again; pretty much par for the course everywhere else.   Knowing that, and knowing that I had scholarships and grants, I figured I better take advantage of shit.   So I'm here now, finishing up my fourth year and only a half semester away from my double major.    Then again, I still have really never tried.   

Last night was the first night I actually did "homework" that was not a paper since I was in high school.   Statistics shit.   Lame.   Coincidentally, I dropped that class my Senior year of HS because I was getting a 98% in it. . . and now all of it seems so foreign.     I mean fuck, four years ago.    I have always just gotten by easily because I'm "naturally smart" (I guess) -- and without studying, I've managed a pretty respectable GPA for undergraduate work.   

I look back and I'm sort of disappointed.   Yeah, I've held down part-time jobs all four years and worked for three different Departments, now lobby and serve on the Senate -- but I kind of feel like I pissed in the faces of the people I got scholarships from and the taxpayers ultimately for their grants.   Even the loans.   I could have done much better if I actually tried, but meh.    I'm trying now though, just to see how a little effort can go as far as the ol' GPA boostin' in case grad school becomes an option considering the economic prospect of the day.

Oh well, I'm rambling.

Anyways Animal Ghost, shit happens, sorry to hear you got arrested -- and I hope stuff gets better man.    I've had two run ins with the police over the past two weeks and they were just ridiculous.   I'm just glad Fargo cops are stupid as fuck.   Yay for that.

So they let you do that at the Springs campus but at the Boulder campus they wouldn't?

Granted, Boulder's fucking expensive, and I'm not really a fan of the atmosphere, but there's always Superior or Longmont to commute from, which isn't too bad.

Hey Blog Thread! I am glad to have you back.
Currently I am typing from a coffee shop (hello!) because our internet screwed up for the second time since Jimmy the Squid has been gone and this time I need the account password which only he remembers because I am a silly sod and lost all the papers I had it written on. I hope we can get it soon, or I will end up spending a fortune on coffee to stay here!
Anyway did I write last time that I am trying to find an apartment? It is no fun at all. Sydney housing is so tight that anytime I find somewhere nice it is gone before I can ring up to make an appointment, and the ones that I have viewed have been completely and utterly unlivable. Yerk.
However things are still awesome for me right now. I am pretty much in love with the New Boy and I am kinda thinkin' he feels similarly! It is a fantastically wonderful feeling, no matter how silly I feel when I realise I've been staring into space smiling for five minutes. (So um, yeah, nothing new since my last post there really.)

Typically there might be three or four days of +40 in Melbourne every year, but Melbourne weather patterns being what the are it's usually 40 degrees one day and 20 the next. This year's unusual in that they're all the 40-degree days (and god I hope there aren't any more in the pipeline) are happening back-to-back. First time in 100 years, apparently! Uh, yay being part of history . . . ?

A really good (and really attractive) friend of mine from college is moving to a town close to where I'll be living next week!
Our social lives will have common ground. This is good news.
Also, my arm is getting better. In 1-2 weeks I'll be able to drive again, effectively ending my stint in Home Prison.

RE: The Loaded Pintail is an awesome board. I have the Flex-2 because I only weigh 65 kg. When it comes to trucks, I have not noticed a major difference between Randal, Tracker, Gullwing etc. Since they all cost roughly the same, I'd get a set that lets you turn around the axle and thus change the angle at which it connects to the rest of the truck quickly and easily.
Oh, and to make the impacts easier on the board, put some rubber cushion pads between the trucks and the deck. Mine are only 3 or 4 mm but it helps.

Oh my word I have an exam on Tuesday and on Friday and on the Tuesday after that and I (feel like I) know more or less nothing...the exam on Friday has a fairly big say in whether or not I am doing honours English lit and that is terrifying because sometimes I am not really sure if I am cut out for English Lit/academia but other times I am all "Hey this is awesome and totally what I want to be doing".

Basically I am stressing out a little bit over an exam that I should be able to pass even though I probably haven't put enough work in but mostly I am stressing out because I feel like if I don't put in the work I maybe shouldn't be doing the course.

So I, uh, got the results for that English Lit exam today.

(I maybe got an A)

I think it gets up to 45C during the summers here most of the time, then we'll have about half a month where its closer to 50C most of the days.

In other news, I was late to an appointment with an instructor, now I must be 30 minutes early and I have to sit outside of the school and meditate. Even in the summer, I have to sit outside for 30 minutes and meditate or I am kicked out.

As ungodly hot as that is, I'll gladly trade you it for the 2 degrees (F) here.

Oh by the way I'm sick. So I've missed 3 out of 4 sessions of my EthnoMathematics class so far this semester, and am already failing in it. Fuck math. I am a horribly combination of 1. stupid and 2. lazy when it comes to math. In any subject, I throw myself into it, no matter how much reading or work it is. But math, I just look at it, shake my head and mutter "fuck it," even if it would only take 20 minutes to do.

Have just watched grave of the fireflies.

They should have a big warning label on the side of it reading: Warning, Most Depressing film you will ever see, seriously, this makes 1984 look like a muppet Christmas Carol.

Sorry to intrude, just may explain why my posts my be a bit soggy, and why my style may be a bit more emotionally charged than usual.

And you are souless, what happened? Did the emperor come along and eat it, or did you bargain it to satan for suits?

The kid is stupid and filled with misplaced pride. He is not a douchebag, because that would imply he is going out of his way to do horrible crap to others on purpose, which considering he dies painfully and with the sheer guilt of having effectivly killed his little sister then I think he's suffered enough for it. Considering it was based on real life I think I can assure you that I felt very very upset, thats probably wrong of me, but the day I stop crying for people who are fictional with the same intensity that I cry for real people is the day I decide to go and have a nice nap on the train lines.

Once again I apoligise, but as I said "heightened emotional state"

Man, you guys are tough! You had snow and survived!

Last week several cities in the Tidewater (or Hampton Roads or whatever they're trying to get people to call it) area closed their schools because of the threat of snow. We were supposed to get 4 or 5 inches of the stuff.*
The amount of snow we actually received? NONE.
Yep we had a snow-less snow day.






* If we had actually received 4 or 5 inches it probably would've paralyzed the area. We have no idea what to do when it snows besides panic.

Awww yeah!
Only in south carolina do you get a snow day with less than an 1/8 inch.

The snow didn't even stick.
There were just small patches.

Well if we are going to do this...

Only in North Dakota do you still have class during a blizzard.

Not so.

At my first college (upstate NY) I walked into a 4 hour physics lab when there were only 2 feet of snow on the ground, when I walked out there were three and a half.
