baby!

they're technically closer to rabbits than rodents. they do have rodent teeth, and they have a rat like tail, but it has tuft on the end. they're also a lot like chinchillas...they have dust baths, jump around, climb like crazy, and have super soft fur.

just as everything was turning out weirdly, i thought i revived it... and now im not so sure. dammit. im so confused

So I failed a midterm that I was confident I'd at least passed.

I knew EVERYTHING on that goddamned test, and I failed.

Great.

sorry to hear that.

In other news... I got 2 hours of sleep last night (or "day" to you freaks). Work sucked.

This kind of love is getting expensive.

actually, you can't. not in ontario anyway. to be a psychologist, you gotta get your phd.

i think i have pretty much given up on the grad school idea and now i'm going no where. sigh.

I swear you only need your masters degree in Ontario. I was checking with guidance and we were looking at some careers website, and it said in Ontario that to be a psychologist you only needed your MA. Then I checked some other sites and they said the same.

well, according to my abnormal psych book:
"In some jurisdictions, the title “psychologist” is reserved for doctoral-level registrants whereas master’s level registrants are referred to as “psychological associates”. As of 1998, two provinces (Quebec and Alberta) and the Northwest Territories require a master’s degree; four provinces (New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, and PEI) specify the doctoral degree but allow registration with a master’s degree subject to certain conditions and/or for a limited period of time; the remaining provinces (BC, Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan) require the doctorate.”

edit: unless it has been changed since 1998, but that i don't know

Aw man. Which one?

*hug* don't freak out too much jooshy, as you can tell by the above responses that's a pretty standard part of university life...

SO, I just got home from 2 days at my friends house.

It was pretty sweeeet.

But I'm a bad person, and now life sucks again.

My birthday is TOMORROW though!!! 16!!!

Well, fuck. I swear if guidance has fucked me over again I will kill them all. Fuck! I can't get a phd, this is not good! Or instead of just whining, I can double check these conflicting reports of information. *rummages for the sheet with the password to log into the career website*

So yeah you were right. Well the future I'd been planning since about grade 10 is now gone. I know I can't get a phd...i'm actually rather fucked now. I think i'll go have a word or two with guidance tomorrow. Well, that's jolly good. At least I found out now, before I was like in university or something.

i love being the bearer of good news.

why can't you get a phd? you still have lots of time. it's too late for me though.

guidance sucks rusty. hate to break it to you, but it's probably your fault for trusting them to begin with

yea, my guidance counsellor said it was ok for me to drop algebra, taking into account the schools and programs i was applying too, and i ended up with all these hassels in my first year cause algebra was a prerequiste for a couple of classes in my program.

you should pretty much just err on the side of caution as far as class selection goes, is what i lived by in high school.
