She's decided to go for her bachelors in graphic design. But in order to do that she has to transfer to another school. She just graduated from Aiken Tech with a degree in Computer Technology, emphasis on Graphic Design. Same degree I have. And she wanted to transfer to USCA Aiken. Cake walk right? nope.
She applied at USCA and was turned down because you need 30 credit hours to transfer a degree over. She has 21 that are transferable out of the 30+ shes taken. So she's gotta take some other classes at ATC to get into USCA. Which sucks and means ATC has been lying to her this entire time. But its not her fault.
Well she talked to our parents about it...and thats when the shit storm hit. They pretty much not only called her a total failure, but me as well. Saying that all of our time in school was a waste and that the degree that we have hanging up aren't worth the paper they are printed on and that we were both "fucking geniouses" that had been lying to them about it this ever since I started college.
So ok. All these years of "we're so proud of you....you're both such great kids, smart...blah blah blah." 100% pure grade A Bullshit.
Hmmm. Well if that doesn't make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside...I don't know what will.
Needless to say I'll be having a few words with my parents this evening about all of this.
I won't stand for being trash-talked behind my back and then be lied to face-to-face.
So keep me in prayer guys & gals. This ain't gonna be pretty.
