College

As if the application process isn't stressful enough. I applied and got into my dream school, Christopher Newport University.  I couldn't wait to finally be a Captain! I did the typical girly thing to do and went on Pinterest to look up potential dorm room decor. I researched every corner of CNU's website to find out  things about sororities and clubs and everything else I wanted to know. Well, it turns out that after countless hours of research, they didn't offer anything to help me to reach my end career. I want to be a Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (DMS.) As I discussed this with my parents, I came to the realization that I would have to go to a community college, and then ANOTHER community college after that for the DMS program. That idea wasn't bad at all until I realized that I would never be able to dorm, I will never be a part of a sorority, I will never get that on-campus, full on college experience, and that brought me to tears. I've been waiting for this moment my whole life and I can't even make it happen. I chose what I wanted to be with the help of a research paper I did in English class, and I guess that's my destiny. I hope that it's all worth it in the end. Every time I go on Twitter, people are posting how many days until they move in, or how they just bought all they're dorm stuff. It makes me so sad, but I think I'm doing the right thing. I'm saving my parents lots of money and I won't be wasting away four year of my life because the school didn't offer what I needed.
