They had all kinds of different career class packages to take; I chose the Certified Nurse Aid program so I could easily find a new job after high school. Unlike the Upward bound program, this was for actual college credits and would be on my transcript. Needless to say, after about two months of these college courses I withdrew from the program. My excuse was that it was getting too much to juggle college, high school, and work. And once again I look back on it now and I was so unaware to see that juggling all those responsibilities was a taste of real life and I can't just run away from that. I feel like I've let myself down or sold myself short. If I had finished my college courses not only could I have been ahead when I started college, but I would most likely have a CNA job. This had taken me way back to high school and graduation was right around the corner. I applied to WSU and couldn't get in because of my GPA. It was like I knew exactly what I needed to do to improve my grades, but I doubted it
