I was accepted to a college!! Now all I have to do is graduate.

Okay in my last blog when I said that the day wouldn't get any better it did. About five minutes after I logged off of my account Otterbein called to tell me that I'd been accepted!I'm going to college! I haven't got any replies from the other colleges I've applied to yet but its important to take pleasure in the little things.
Tuesday I had my last English Composition class. We still have papers to turn in but all we have to do is drop them off at Prof. Beickelman's office before Friday and we're set. We spent our last day writing a "final evaluation" and slowly watching the class staples who you've come accustomed to (but never committed their names to memory) trickle out of the room, there was Sideburns Guy, ADHD Bryce, Miss Sociable, Baseball Cap Guy, Community Housing Guy, Amber Cole Equivalent Girl, Girl who knows Chloe and Elizabeth at Graham, and finally Christian Dad. I was of course the last person to finish the evaluation. The individual who finished before me(Christian Dad) stayed back to talk to the professor. He's an older gentleman, the father of a Junior at Worthington- Kilbourn High school . He's the type that finds significance in every detail of life and openly expresses the joys of parenting.... one of those types. He's also a Christian that goes on annual mission trips with his church. When asked what we could do about world poverty he answers, "Nothing, I don't think we can do anything about it." (How about becoming awarer of your spending, if you live in Worthington God knows you can afford it.) Anyway, despite his positivity this guy rubs me the wrong way.
After I finished my evaluation I witnessed him lecture Prof. Beickelman about how he should settle down and start a family. Prof. B. grinned politely, trying to avoid the prying questions about his personal life, which based on how Prof. B specifically avoided the question "Why haven't you found a nice girl to settle down with?" I'm skeptical as to whether his lifestyle is one that this student student would approve. Changing the subject Prof. B praised me on my intelligence and dotted on how fantastic I am.
I'm sad to see this class end. I genuinely enjoyed taking it. As long as I turn in my last papers I see no reason I wont pass this class if not ace it. French on the other hand is still iffy. Over the summer I enjoyed taking French but not anymore, I find myself dreading each and every class. I haven't gotten my last test score back yet so I'm not quite sure where to place myself (failing or almost failing), I'm really anxious about next week and for better or worst will be glad when this shit is over. If your a Junior or a sophomore reading this (not hat anyone but Jessi is reading this) take my advice; NEVER take a college class to full fill a graduation requirement!! Looking back I should have taken a full course load at Graham first semester, gotten all of my credits out of the way, gone overseas for 3rd quarter walkabout, came back and taken Columbus State classes for 4th quarter, hindsight is 20/20. I'm sure someone suggested this to me but I didn't listen to them, how stupid of me. If I don't pull through with French then my only option for graduating on time would to do an extensive paper or additional project or something for Cultural Studies while on my 4th quarter Walkabout (as if I didn't have enough to do, teaching children to speak and empowering women and whatnot).
Anyway thinking about graduation has stressed me out so I'll end it here.

Until next time...
