I was just frowned upon by an old classmate. this is a long one so getready. in high school i wasnt a very serious student, i barely went to school, and barely graduated on time. anyway i am at k-mart when i run into an old classmated from high school. we talk then she asks me what am i in school for i say nursing she says" oh that fits you (with a laugh) why don't you go all the way, your smart enough, im sure" i wanted to hit her. mind youshe brags about being at the school i cant wait to attend.she isa pre med student and had the nerve to look down on me. i wanted to go off and tell her how important nursing is and how smart and dedicated you have to be, and also how i felt about her comment. instead i said oh i hope you make it as a doctor congradulations and good luck! i felt as though she wanted me to react differently because she tried to put me down in a good way, but she didnt. she wanted me to say " oh my G.P.A. is so and so, blah, blah, blah, she wanted me to get offended and argue, instead i showed her who was the intelligent and mature one. i didnt need to brag to her or tell her all my business just because she wanted to hear it. i know that i my heart i am satisfied with the career path that i choose and i really don't care if she or anyone else is gonna look down on me. i feel as thoughn i set her sraight by being civil. would you all have acted differently?
