I will be petitioning to not have to take a year off. My study habits are terrible and I was starting to make some improvement on them this past year, though clearly not enough, so I don't think taking a year off of school will help.
I have a physical at my Doctor's tomorrow so I'll bring up needing some sort of letter then. I don't know how good the letter will be though, since I'm not all that open with my doctor about my depression. Maybe she can put something about my gluten intolerance on there too..
I do know what I need to do, this feels like such a low blow. Most of my friends are just one year away from graduating and I still haven't finished my second year courses for my program. I have difficulty making friends too and many of my friends are in other cities and I rarely see or talk to them. The few that are here will be gone after next year finding jobs. I feel left behind.
