Ok, so I was lying in bed last night wondering why a smart girl, like me, thinks she is so dumb. Is it society telling me men are smarter… uh no. Is it that I really am dumb… 116 IQ, don’t think so. Am I telling myself I am dumb, well… obviously, but why? So he is what I came up with. When I was younger, although I was smart I surrounded myself with even smarter people. My husband for example is probably the most current and obvious (he’s a freaking rocket scientist!) In Honors English, I should have stuck out and gone through III, and IV. I let the teacher in II think I was too dumb to continue. Just because I was a C student she thought I would do better in “regular” English, and I did, but since my sophomore year in high school I haven’t learned anything new in English, but at least I got As right? I would have rather gotten Cs and learned something. Math, I was in an advanced class in 2nd grade, but the whole time I thought I was being sent to another class, because I was not as smart as the other kids in my class. It wasn’t until YEARS later that my parents finally told me I was actually in an advanced class. And then there is the ever-famous college situation. I sit here talking to you today, the not so proud owner of an Associates Degree in Animal Technology from the best Vet Tech school in the country. Why am I not proud of 4 years of hard work? One, it wasn’t THAT hard, but moreover I also sit here with 3 years towards my Bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry. If you are wondering, that IS hard. And so I copped out. An easy associates degree and I am a vet tech, who needs to worry about getting into CSU and work on my DVM when I can chicken sh*t out and still get a job in the field? So, those are my thoughts today. That will probably be the topic of next months poll. Should I return to school?
