That's right. I recently discovered that I will no longer be attending the University of Spoiled Daughters. After last semester's meek efforts at academia, my parents have deemed the school to be ineffective in advancing my education.
I am extremely torn.
On one side, I know that USD's probably not the right place for me. I'm what they call an "artistic spirit" and USD dosen't have a lot to offer me in that regard. I didn't particularly enjoy my core classes and I didn't feel excited about learning. I liked my architecture class, but that accounted for only 4 credits. So essentially I was paying 55,000 to enjoy one of my classes.
On the other side, I have my friends, my food, and my room. I have put a great deal of effort into ensuring that Kater and I have the coolest dorm on campus. Canopy beds, artwork, a flatscreen, perfume shelves, a vanity... We truly live in the swank factory. And then there's Kater. We bonded so much. We're incredibly different, but we synched somehow. I feel like she really understands me. I guess living with someone for 4 months can do that.
Of course there's Jewel, who I LOVE. I mean we got married for Christ's sake! I have never met anyone like her, and I'll be surprised if I ever do again. Jewel, If you're reading this a.) I LOVE YOU NEVER CHANGE THE WAY YOU ARE. b.) It's nice to know that someone reads my blog.
And the penthouse girls: Michelle, Meghan, Kate, Lacee. So many good times. Mission beach, Glee nights, mall trips, kings cup, gnos, and of course our fits of hysterical laughter at mealtimes. The toughest thing is going to be saying goodbye to the friends I've made and knowing I might not even get the chance.
And so I turn yet another page in the book of life...
Everything is up in the air right now.
I'm looking at schools, I'm looking at travel programs, I'm looking at jobs...
It's exciting to know that I choose my next step, but also overwhelming to be confronted with that decision.
I will miss the luxury of living in San Diego. The weather, the food, the views. But as much as I tried to deny it, USD just wasn't right for me. I will really miss you guys.
