Have had an awful month.. kind of a rant.. hope it's entertaining

Published

So I failed out of nursing school at my community college. I failed with a 79, and had to have an 80 to pass.

Then I got into the University here in town, my step dad works there and I get a free ride, besides buying books and supplies and such.

So after I failed, I got a job, only my CNA expired the day before I was suppose to do orientation. My old job wouldn't sign my renewal form and I waited over a week for my friend to help me out.

So now I'm retaking my CNA exam (which i'm scared about) and I still have to get a physical for school, and a tb test (got the first one today)

I also lost my medicaid because I turned 21.

So It seems like everything it working against me and I hate it.

But at least i did turn 21 so I have something to do while sitting at home all day. haha.

Welcome to adulthood. Take a few days to mourn the loss of your childhood delusion that you are invincible and then pick yourself up and start taking the actions you need to take to get your life back on a positive track. I'm sorry you had such a hard crash from adolescence to the grown-up world ... but if you can get your act together, the world can be a nice place.

As a university student, you should be able to get health insurance -- and I believe the new health care laws allow you to stay on your parents' policy for a reasonable price until your mid-20's. Take care of that VERY soon. That's something you don't want to be without.

Plus, your eyebrows are perfect, so there's that. :)
