You know, sometimes I wonder why I'm constantly trying to screw myself over. I didn't do my Film Lit paper by last Thursday, even though my Professor clearly stated that I would fail his class if I didn't. Now it's Tuesday, and I STILL haven't done the paper. Unlike last sememster, where I never did the big paper for my Com Theory class, I actually LIKE Film Lit. Why am I doing this to myself? This isn't a difficult paper! Why am I giving myself so much trouble doing it?
I got advised yesterday, so now I know what classes I need to take for the rest of the year. I also finally handed in my application for the job at the Comm department. Unfortunately, I also realized that by failing Com theory (yes, my Professor finally got around to changing that grade from "Inc" to "F". Why he waited until April to do that, I don't know... did he think I still wanted to hand in that stupid paper? O.o), my GPA has dropped to 2.6 from my usual 3.5 at Iona. This is bad, since I need at least 2.5 to get the job. DAMMIT!
I can't do GPA math (never could!), but I'm guessing that if I fail either Film Lit or Geography this semester (both of which I have a good chance of doing due to lack of papers), my GPA will fall ridiculously. I get the strong STRONG feeling that I'm fucked.
I'm going to make a concerted effort to do my Film Lit paper today. I'm also going to try my best to hand in the rest of my Geo papers (because, wouldn't you know it, he doesn't accept anything past its due date, no if-ands-buts). But, my hopes aren't too high right now. I don't want to fail... but I don't think I've realized that until far too late. Now I might not have a choice.
Sigh. Maybe I should just transfer back to Iona. I did great while I was over there, while I've had problem after problem since going to WPU. I still have an account at Iona's Peoplesoft, I techncially can still apply for classes there. I'm seriously tempted to say "Screw it" to WPU and just go back. Only time will tell if I actually get frustrated enough with this place to actually do it.
