In the midst of slipping

So the fast thing was really nice. I've been breaking it the past couple of days, but I think I'll rehash it next week when I start my SemLink.

A lot of stuff has happened. I finished my summer course, I had my car in the shop (again) and argued about paying for it. Still ended up paying $84 for the stupid part plus tax. I also got put on academic probation. That was terrifying. I only dropped .33 below 3.0, but that's still really just...I've never had an experience like that before, and I hope to never have that happen again.

When I say it never rains, it pours, that's a lie. It's too mild. It not only pours, it dumps water completely on top of me. It's like The Truman Show when he's sitting on the beach. He's the only thing being rained on and it chases him. That's how I feel. And there's nothing I can do about it. Eventually all the rain turns on. And then :-P to Caleb.

Hi- I'm an old GCTS Aluma (1996)- can't believe it's been that long!

Anyway- I was searching blogs to see if any of my old classmates are into blogging. I saw your blog and took a look and felt I should encourage you.

I never really learned to study until I got to GCTS. My experience there poured,big multiple-gallon buckets of water all over me so I know and affirm what you're going through. For me the drenching was God's way of getting my attention and changing my course. After that it was still a strugglel, but I graduated. Wait on God and He will make a way for you.
