Decision Made

I've made the decision to transfer out of College of Charleston to Trident. I bet from the outside looking in, it looks like I'm giving up and taking the easy way out. That isn't it, I can handle CofC education wise. My grades are fine, minus a little slacking on my part, but other than that it's tolerable. So that's not why I'm doing this. I was planning on taking Summer courses at Trident anyways to get my sciences out of my way, so why not just go there full time? I'll be living in Summerville, at home which isn't too appealing but it's better than Charleston, and near everyone/thing I know. It's where my happiness is, and in Charleston I have nothing. I want a job, my car, and people I can see on a regular basis. I'm still aiming to get into the cardiovascular perfusion program at MUSC, but I have back up plans if that fails. I can obtain an RN, work for a year, apply again to MUSC and become an anesthesiologist. Or perhaps a physical therapist. It all depends, and for now I'm just going to take as much science classes as necessary, enjoy my life, and see where it takes me. I don't mind if I have a high paying job like I did before, I just want to be happy and make the people around me happy.

Well school is coming to a break - thank God. One whole week free of school related bullshit. It'll be a huge relief. Heading to Asheville for two days to get ink'd and to hike. It'll be fun, I just wish Jesse could come. I spent the past few months debating what I should get done and where. I finally decided on a feather on my right outer thigh. I wear shorts a lot when the weather permits it and it's simple and nothing I think I'll regret. It doesn't symbolize anything (I personally think that would be dumb). It's going to murder my finances, but that's fine.

I got to church now. I absolutely adore it. It's a surprise to most people because I was always the type to argue and oppose everything and anything to do with religion. Now I'm the one telling people they shouldn't be so close minded and open up. I never thought I'd see the day. I like it. :)
