...and I will never have to be one!
Today, Curtin University of Technology turned down my appeal for extra exemptions to the measly one year they gave me. Today, I decided to turn this disappointing piece of news into something extremely fantastic.
I am liberated from the field of psychology. I don't ever have to look at another lab report and pretend I want to read it. I don't ever have to conduct searches on Ebsco.com about The Effects of Motivation on the Mentally Ill. I don't ever have to look at pages and pages of SPSS and feel like an ant in an elephant's house.
Instead, I get to jump into this wonderful, exciting, scary new world of english and creative arts. Except that it doesn't even feel new, it feels like I'm coming home to things familiar and comforting to me. I get to read and read and read some more. I get to feel like I can actually do something right. Boy do I hope I can do this right.
I know this all sounds so incredibly cheesy but I am happy.
The price I have to pay is six months more of the dreaded Distance but we are good on both sides and this makes me even happier. I promise silently to be good and to not make the same mistakes. I do this with a light heart, because I am armed with the knowledge that we get to spend 3 years together and get to know each other even better.
I'll be back soon, I can't write very well with this hyper, crazed, Friends-obsessed person in my room. (gee, who am I to talk)
