So I got a job today!!!! It's not glamorous or anything, but it will do for now. On a side note, something happened today that has never happened to me. Probably the fourth or fifth person asked me to transfer to a school near home. Because of who it was, I actually am deeply considering it. I only have one year left at RPI, but it's sucking the life force from me. The knowledge of having two more semesters is giving me new strength. If I transfer back home, I might have to stay at school longer, and it will be harder to find a career after. the most logical choice is to stay at RPI, but I think I may have really strong feelings for this girl. I think I should find out how my friend feels about me. If I transfer, and take all these stupid career risks, and get my heart broken again, I would be in pretty bad shape. I'm open to suggestions and advice. Other than that, my job starts on Wednesday.
The cost of transferring is never worth it. I transferred twice and was barely able to squeeze four years of college into five years. I graduated a 120 credit program with 160 credit hours of work. Transferring sucks. Ride out the two shitty semesters at RPI then look for jobs at home. Take road trips on the long weekends, read lots of books in your apartment and drink too much beer. Whatever, but if you only have two semesters left then transferring is just crazy.
