Unhappy HC this is about to be a long one!!!

HC I am soooo upset...
HC now that I know what's up, I feel the need to come and share with my GC family...
HC most of ya'll know that I am in Nursing School, and that I also work full-time third shift...
HC last Thursday I came home at like 7:30-8am and I had a class at 10am, I decided to make some phone calls to set up a dentist appt...
HC I must have been dead-dog tired because I fell asleep (sitting up I might add) on the couch and missed my class....
HC I didn't have anymore absences...
HC I begged my professor to let me make it up, write a paper, come to one of her other sections...
HC she said NO (hence she deserves a PIMP SLAP!)
HC she said she would have to withdraw me from her course...
HC since this is a co-requisite for my clinical course I have to withdraw from that as well???
HC WTF??
HC this means that not only do I have to withdraw, and retake this class (UM... IT'S AFTER MIDTERMS!!!)...
HC since this clinical is not offered over the summer, I have to wait until Fall...
HC this puts my graduation back 9 months!!!!
HC I am so upset!
HC I can't afford to quit my job...but I am so tired of this shit...
HC I work my butt off and I was making all A's, and I have to withdraw over some stupid 'crappola'.
HC I know that I have to take responsibility...
HC I just can't believe all of this consequence because I was tired and fell asleep.

HC that's not all...
HC do you remember when I said I wanted to blow up Financial Aid?
HC I had to put in an appeal because they said that I "had not made satisfactory academic progress"?
HC HELLO I have like an overall 3.5-3.6 something like that...what the hell do you mean?
HC anyway the appeal was "approved", but I had to sign some paper that said that it was a contingent approval, contingent upon me make a C or better in all of my classes and not withdrawing from any classes..
HC Yep...since I have to withdraw from those classes, I lose my financial aid...

HC RECAP...
a) I have to withdraw from Pharmacology
b) since this is a co-requisite, I have to withdraw from clinicals
c) they don't offer this clinical over the summer
d) I have to take it again in the Fall, and I cannot progress until then
e) graduation is set back 9 months
f) no longer eligible for financial aid

HC I AM SCREWED!!!!
