Graduate school frustration...

So the more I go through my graduate school education the more FRUSTRATED I feel back the lack of information given to us. There was an assumption made that most if not all in the program were currently teaching in their own classrooms. This was an epic fail on the part of my institution. In addition, for those of us who have to complete student teaching, we weren't notified of having to send in an application for student teaching last semester if we wanted to have it completed in the fall of 2010. So now I am grossly behind and am having to scramble and probably outright beg to be possibly allowed to student teach this fall in order to graduate this December. It seems my hope of doing so has fallen by the way-side leaving a bad taste in my mouth.

My desire to graduate within the year is driven partly by my desire to return abroad, more specifically, to return to South Korea. However, it is also driven by the fact that I am having to take out loans for every semester I spend in my given program. I am sorely tempted to transfer programs except for the fact that it would mean more paperwork and more frustration for me.

So now I begin the mad dash of finishing up Praxis testing and all out begging to be granted the right to finish a semester earlier before I end up going broke or crazy...

...I'll probably go crazy first...
