  • \FLOUN-der\
  • DEFINITION

verb

1
: to struggle to move or obtain footing : thrash about wildly

I'm not so sure they actually know what they are doing. They appear just to be floundering about.


FYI I'm definitely floundering about in school and in life right now (as per the 2nd definition).

Summer really is dead. I finally think I might have become responsible again. I've given up on my summer bucket list... 4 times now I've denied going on a hike I have wanted to go on all summer... I am going to study instead... maybe..

R.I.P. Summer 2010

Summer is dead. Fall 2010 is here.

At least every ending leads to a new beginning.

Carpe Diem

Graduate School

I have found some helpful websites as I have been poking around considering Graduate School in the nearing future.

This one is generic but very helpful. It lists all of the colleges in each state with the specific program you are interested in
http://www.educationdegree.com/school/

Right now if I go away to Graduate School I am interested in going back east or west coast. I am thinking about considering Pennsylvania near family. Below is the website for Penn State's College of Education. I am most interested in the Educational Psychology M.S.

Also I saw an add for Pepperdine University in CA which could be interesting to look into.

Anyways, just some helpful resources.

Scholarship Website....a little too late

Why did I not find this website years ago? like when I first started college? It would have been really helpful!

Oh well, I made it through 3 years of college alright, and maybe I can scrape by for this LAST year.

This website is free and has lots of helpful information and links to scholarships and grants
