<p>I am currently a freshmen at CAl State Long Beach, AND I AM COMPLETELY MISERABLE!!!!!</p>
<p>even after the 3 short months I've spent here, I've found that Long Beach is definitely not the place for me. I have absolutely no motivation to do well academically here.. due to NO social life [BIG commuter school], and I feel like I am just surrounded by people who have no desire to excel academically...This feeling must have rubbed off onto me too because I am doing really poorly this semester, barely pulling through...</p>
<p>I want to transfer out ASAP...I cannot picture myself spending the next 4 years here :[ ....my top choices are UCLA, UCI and USC...USC being my first choice because they offer lower division transfers. I dont want to wait until my junior year, but if thats what it takes, then I will... </p>
<p>As previously stated, Im doing very poorly...probobly barely getting by with a 3.0 ...However, next semester I plan on taking more units and raising my GPA... I am a female, asian, english-second language student if that means anything at all.. And I work 25-30 hours a week..I also received my Gold Award in Girl Scouts last year[if that even helps].. oh and Im a business management major..</p>
<p>Can anyone offer me any advice or information?! Anything is appreciated..even encouragement :] Thanks a bunch and wish me luck!!</p>
