F**k the First Semester

Finally got my grades for the Fall semester. And... needless to say, I am very much disappointed and somewhat depressed. My transfer GPA to SFSU was 3.86 (while my SFSU GPA was 0.0 of course). And now that the first semester at SFSU is over, I... I was embarrassed to mention it, and even went as far as thinking I failed medical school before even applying, but whatever. I need to accept it and move on to fix it. My cumulative GPA dropped down to 3.42 and my SFSU GPA is a 2.70. Yes, that's right. The first time in my life that I have ever been below 3.50. I almost cried. If that remedial math course that I got an 'A' actually counted, I would probably be at least a 3.0.

I guess I should look at the bright side, my cumulative GPA is over 3.0.....

I'm done sobbing. I'm going to move on and make myself try differently. Spring semester, I am only taking 3 courses (12 units). I am going to spread out my hours at work more throughout the week so I actually have some days where I get off at 3PM (giving me 2-3 extra hours to study during the day).

Next year... if I don't get that Resident Assistant's job (my own room as well as free housing and meals), I won't be holding any other job. I will be 100% on loans whether I like it or not. I can't afford to have another semester with crap grades again. Especially since I noticed I can't pull late nights like I used to in high school. *sigh* I just can't be superwoman anymore.
