STUPID COLLEGE

I have been noticing that everybody I graduated from high school with is graduating from college, except me. I have never been to college. So, I have decided to change that. I am going to go to college. I want to be a Physical Therapist Assistant. I want to be in the Health Profession. That seems like one of the most rewarding jobs I can do! I mean, I'm not stupid, but I'm also not too bright! So I go up to Black River Technical College Paragould Campus today; I figured I will take all the classes I can through them since they are cheaper than ASU. I asked to speak to a financial adviser, I figured I need to figure out if I can get student loans before I sign up for classes. Well, they don't have a financial advisor on campus in Paragould. The lady gave me the number for the lady in Pocahontas. I call her, she informs me I have to set up the classes first, then try to get student loans. OK! So I call up at Paragould Campus and ask to speak to the academic advisor. She got on the phone and I asked her if I could make an appoitment this afternoon to go up there and speak with her. . . NO!!!! She has a class from 1:30 - 3:30. Well, it was only 12:30, so she had an hour that she could have fit me in. . . but thats ok! I asked her about in the morning . . . . NO!!!! She has a class from 8:30 - 10:30! So I asked her if I could come in after her class. . . sure but she goes to lunch as 11:30! Ok! Why have her be the academic advisor if she can't make time to be one! I mean she would not even set up an appointment with me! I am finally sure that this is something I want to do, and I cant even seem to get it done! ARGH!!!!!!

Well, we went to Doniphan for the 4th of July. Went to the forge to watch fireworks. It was a great show. It lasted about 3 minutes. Some fireworks blew up and they had to air evac someone. NOT GOOD! So we did not get to watch much fireworks. But on the way home, we got to watch Walnut Ridge's Fireworks. They were pretty good!

Well, i am leaving for vacation in 9 days! I am SO excited! Going to Arizona to see my grandfather. He told my dad he was going to take me to San Fransisco! I can't wait!
