Today has been the laziest day I've had in a while. Unfortunately, I probably should have been the most productive today. Not only was my only class of the day cancelled but I have two papers due by Friday and I promised my sister that I would edit her English paper. But instead of getting all of that done early on in my day, I slept until 2 pm and I have yet to complete any of those tasks.
Instead I am going to hash out my transfer problems. If I am to stay at American University until the end of the year: pros- no awkward break up with my roommate, just fly home for Christmas break, stay in DC. cons- spending $50,000 on an overpriced education, I don't really like the people here, I miss everyone back home terribly
If I transfer to FSU: pros- I will be with my friends, the education is much cheaper, they have degrees in fields that I may want to join, I will be close to home cons- my family will see me as a quitter, it may be a rash decision, am I taking away opportunities that I would have had at AU, FSU is a step down, my parents will have to take time off to drive all of my stuff from DC to Boston
I really don't know what I am going to do. Right now it is like 60% transfer, 40% stay.
Slap me if I'm being too intrusive.
ReplyDeleteMy idea of switching made me think they'd all think I was a quitter too, though. I don't know your parents like you do, but what I thought about when I thought of switching was what made me the happiest.
If you don't switch, you're there for four years. Can you do four years there? Can you do four years at FSU? If they don't have your degree, are you going to be happy mushing yourself into a degree you didn't want?
You are never too intrusive. Thank you for the help <3
