Put a fork in her–she’s done!
Hooray, I am done with school for the year!
Finals are over, grades are in, and now I can relax. Well, I can start working my patooti off to save money for next school year, anyway.
The last month of school was incredibly stressful. I don’t think I’ve ever studied so hard, but it paid off with straight A pluses in upper division science classes. Sorry, CSU vet school, but I just can’t do any better than that… I hope it’s good enough!
I’ll be working a little at the vet clinic this summer, and to fill in the rest of the time, I went and got myself the perfect summer job for a college student–working at a movie theater. It makes me laugh to think about it, because I am twice as old as almost everyone who works there. But I will save a fortune in movie tickets!
I’m very excited about my fall schedule, too. I got all the upper division stuff out of the way this year so that it would be part of my vet school application, even though I had to get prerequisite overrides into every single class to do it. Well, now all I have left to complete my 2nd bachelor’s are freshman and sophomore level biology classes.
I debated a long time whether to keep taking upper division classes or to finish the degree (seeing as the upper division classes will look much better on the application), but I figured any ‘regular’ vet school applicant is going to have the same number of upper division credits as I have now, and what a waste it would be not to finish when I’m so close.
So that means I’m taking the equivalent of Biology 101 next semester. After biochemistry, cell bio, and genetics, I think I’ll be fine. Actually, I think it’ll be a blast.
