<p>Is anyone else in a situation where you're planning to transfer to another school for Fall 2010... yet you still gotta stick it out at your current school through this semester? In my case, not only am I transferring to a new school next semester, I'm also changing my major entirely. I decided to pursue a field that isn't offered at my current college (hence the transfer of school AND major).</p>
<p>I have to admit it's a little difficult at times, knowing that 4 out of the 6 classes I'm taking now will not count for ANYTHING at my new school and in my new major (nope, not electives either.. got all my elective credits). Not only do I <em>hate</em> my current major, but I also am not wanting to getting involved in various campus activities because I'll be leaving soon anyway... wouldn't make sense to get attached to a new group or anything. I guess that's why I dub this the "transfer blues".... It's a kind of limbo that you gotta survive.....</p>
<p>I totally know what you mean. If for no other reason than to keep your options open for grad school, keep the grades up and go to all of your classes. Spend more time with your friends too! You’ll miss each other very much and I promise, you’ll miss your school at some point after you’ve transferred =)</p>
<p>And besides, the semester is going by so quickly! Spring always speeds by.</p>
<p>Yea I see your point… Should probably stop looking at it from a negative point of view, because once the time passes, regardless of whether the time was spent being happy or sad, it will still be gone…</p>
<p>I know what you mean! Well, I’m not 100% where I’m going for the fall but I already got accepted into my 2nd and 3rd choices so I know I’m definitely leaving. I go to school in Miami, and I have lived here for the past ten years. I’m just enjoying the beautiful winter weather here (summers really suck in Miami contrary to common belief). Spending as many days on the beach as I can for now.</p>
<p>I am experiencing the exact same thing. And, my friends are pretty crappy, but at the same time I don’t want to meet a bunch of new people since I’ll be gone in a couple of months anyways. I’m counting down the days!</p>
<p>This might sound really bad but I’m not really putting much of myself into interacting with people socially (at this school)… I mean I’m set to transfer out in a couple months and friendships take time to develop. My mind is already focused on the new school and my future new friends over there…</p>
<p>I understand what you mean, but don’t purposefully cause yourself misery because you know you’ll be leaving soon. You clearly have your reasons for wanting to transfer, so it’s fine to be unsatisfied with your school. However, no one has to live miserably! Play an intramural sport, find a cool shop on your campus’ main boulevard, try a different machine at the gym. This time isn’t “wasted” because it’s still your life. I am also trying to transfer for next fall, but I’m trying to get as much out of my current campus as I can so as not to go crazy waiting for mid-May. Good luck to you!</p>
<p>I am in the exact situation. Its hard to motivate myself to perform well in classes that I know are not going to count. I am also not interested in half my classes :(. Can’t wait for this to be over.</p>
I’m counting down the days!</p>
