grad. schools

So I've been thinking about grad. school a lot lately. And I've been nervous about it too, considering that my graduating G.P.A. wasn't the best. But I talked with a good friend about that issue and she told me that as long as I have some good, strong recommendation letters, I should be okay. So I'm really going to pray for that, because I really really want to go to grad. school. I also hope that they will consider good G.R.E. scores (I haven't taken it yet but I hope to do well, God willing) and also consider that the college I went to wasn't fair in their decisions. (I'm pretty sure that they didn't even bother considering my hardship appeal that I had asked for a very legitimate reason).
But anywho, I actually had something really unusual (in a good way) happen in regards to furthering my education. Just the other day, I had this feeling in my heart and my gut/6th sense that I should consider colleges in...England. No joke. It just hit me that I should branch out and look at College's beyond the US. And this feeling that I have isn't just a fleeting one. It's so weird to me, but I've never felt so strongly about anything. And after doing some research, I actually found one that I like a lot--it's called King's College, London and they even offer grad. programs in Psychology! (A lot of universities are only offering Psychiatry). I'm still trying to think in a levelheaded manner about all this. I mean, there is a chance, maybe even a strong chance I won't get in--but I won't know unless I try at least. That way I won't go "what if...what if" by not applying. So yeah, I'm definitely going to look into this further & keep you guys updated on that. Wish me luck! =)
