Not What I'd Hoped For

The meeting with Dean Bowers told me a few things:
1. I got a list of numbers from him and was referred to other people more capable of answering specific questions.
2. He doesn't realize I intend to return to Kentucky, and nothing I say will convince him of that.
3. UC may not want engineers, but it certainly wants my tuition. They'll do a lot to keep getting it.
4. I should finish out the quarter and register for the next.

I have a few problems with that, though. I'll talk to Roseman to see if the College of Applied Sciences has metalworking courses I'd like, since I also get in-state there, but I really want to cut free from UC at this point. I've made one bloody friend there. I have no complex social life to hold onto at UC, and apartments are vastly cheaper just across the river. In fact, everything is cheaper across the river. I can do metals at Gateway and make nearly as much with a two year as I would in engineering. I also have no desire whatsoever to finish out the quarter. I've got 18 credit hours of F and no chance to save a single one. My GPA will drop below 1.5 at the end of this quarter because I'm getting a 0.00. Also, I really want to spend St. Patrick's day in New York again. I can't really do that if I have school that day and I'm obligated to attend.

Fuck. I'm just as confused now as I was before the meeting that would clear up all the confusion.
