Hey everyone.
I really don't know how to say this or what board to post this on or what. I really feel like crap right now, feels like it's the worst day of my life. And I honestly don't know how to tell my folks about this, that's how scared I am. I don't know whether they'll have a yelling fit at me, or whether they'll cry and hug me, I really don't know.
I rarely discuss my school stuff on here, if any at all, because usually you lot either get bored to death with it or it's too dam complicated.
Yes, this IS about my schooling.
My first year/semester went off good, and just started going downhill a little from the second semester, didn't do as well as I wanted in my first semester/second year, then suddenly hit rock bottom in my second semester of my second year. All because I got a failing grade on ONE course. ONE COURSE, THAT'S IT!!!!!!!!!
That course happened to be a first year physics course, and I did good in my assignments and labs, got a PASSING GRADE on my labs, but when it came to my final exam.....WHAM!! A big F for that. No credits. Nothing. And the course sylabus that we get at the start of the term said that students can only pass the course when they have above 50% in their lab!! And yet I get a big #$%&^*! F as final grade!!!
SO, I was hoping that in my statement of results they might give me a warning or something that I COULD continue this university career. But no...I got far worse than that: "Unsatisfactory standing: required to withdraw."
I am a total failure. And I feel sick right now. This is far worse than being homesick.
So I don't know what to do. It's a nightmare, I tell you. I don't even remember coming home to my lil' apartment, all I remember is once I closed my door the dam broke and bawled my eyes out.
So my plans for some upcoming courses I was planning to take in the fall are COMPLETELY erased, I might as well drop out of the courses I'm taking this summer, and work for WallyWorld for all I care. :x
I guess I better start looking for a job. But I don't know. I just don't know. :help: :help: :help: :help:
I don't think a cute kitten or puppy or anything that usually makes me smile will lift this dark and ugly cloud over my head. I don't want anybody to feel pity for me or feel sorry for me, I just wanted to share this and....<sigh> I don't know what to say anymore. Or what to do, or ANYTHING.
