Life has been a little on edge around here lately. With the cars going down and waiting for them to get fixed and just life getting in the way. I have had to bite my tongue and try to keep the peace around here. It's not easy for me to do and I might just stroke out if I have to keep quiet.
Cole got responses back from the colleges he put in for. 2 were thanks but no thanks and one was "Oh by the way did you know you were .5 credit short of physical science" This is unfortunate because when he was a freshman that class was only 1 semester long. Currently physical science is a full year. Cole went to talk to the counselor and the science teacher. He is going to be allowed to complete an independent study for science for the missing .5 credits and the teacher is going to write a letter of recommendation for him. This teacher loves Cole and would do anything for him plus he's not the only one in this situation. Cole is also going to retake his ACT test next Sat. 4 more points would get him automatically admitted. I know he can do it. I talked to the counselor this morning and he was wonderful and gave us the suggestions as to what to do but made sure to stress it was Cole that had to do it. I just wanted to know if there was still a chance. The college called the counselor before they sent us the letter so he was able to explain why his credits were the way the were. It was also nice to hear his counselor say that Cole's way to smart and should not be selling himself short or settling for anything less than what he wants. If Cole gets accepted I'm sending this man a huge gift. Oh the stress and anxiety. I'll let you know where and for what if he gets accepted. Please say a prayer that he turns his brain on on the 6th. I also think he would kill me if he knew I was telling everyone this.
