I am writing this appeal in reference to the recent letter I received stating that I will be withdrawn from the College of Arts and Sciences due to my poor grades my first semester at ******. It is a large disappointment my family, my roommate whom I have grown so close to, and me to hear this news. I feel as though these grades are not an accurate representation of what I am capable of and I would like to be given a second chance to prove myself. I understand that my withdrawal was chosen due to the fact that I have not earned enough credits and that it is possible that next semester will be the same as the first, but there are several factors which contributed to my failure which have recently changed and cause me to believe that ****** would be the best place to make up the credits I failed to earn.
One major problem in my first semester at ****** is that I overslept for many classes. It appeared my roommate, my family, my professors, and me that I was simply being lazy. I became very frustrated with myself and began to doubt whether I was ready for college or if ****** was right for me. When I did go to class or attempt work, it was very hard to concentrate on the material. I also became severely sick on several different occasions, which caused me to miss weeks of homework and material. When Thanksgiving break had come around, I was warned that my grades were at risk and went to my professors to make up any missed work that I could. By this time, I had lost major confidence in myself and spent the majority of Thanksgiving break oversleeping in my dorm truly doubting my abilities and becoming frustrated while the majority of my peers had gone home to visit their families. I think the biggest impact on my lack of focus was hearing about my father being hospitalized, and I was not able to go home for Thanksgiving break to visit. I think hearing this news did not necessarily benefit me when it came to pulling through finals. I had gotten to the point where I missed so much work that I could barely do any of the make up work or understand the material on my finals.
Since coming home for the first time for winter break, I went to a doctor and blood tests were done that showed that the medication I was put on made me excessively fatigued. I did not realize it at the time but this is what was causing my oversleeping and lack of concentration, and it was not pure laziness. This in turn had made me lose much confidence in my abilities. Since going off the medication, I already feel much better and sleep much less. I believe that this is the biggest factor which impacted me, in addition to adjusting to my new environment, but I do believe it is no one else’s fault but my own for not going to a university doctor about my fatigue or realizing the great impact this medication was having on my brain and motivation. I knew how little work I had turned in and how far behind I was, but for some reason I lacked the will to persevere through these struggles.
To make up the credits that I did not have first semester, I feel as though ****** would be the best location for me to do it in. Going home would be yet another adjustment, and I believe being around my father and his mental illness would be a large distraction and it would make it much more difficult to stay at home and concentrate on work. Although ****** is a long way from home, it is an idyllic place to be in comparison to witnessing my father’s bipolar episodes. It was my last few weeks at ****** where I started to reflect and realize what an amazing school I have been at. It was my last few weeks where I found great study spots around campus, and just as I was beginning to find my niche at ******, the opportunity to continue has, understandably, been taken away from me.
I believe I was accepted into ****** because I am a hardworking and disciplined person, and while my first semester does not reflect this fact, seeing failing grades on my first semester record has made me realize the great impact that my actions, or lack thereof, can cause. If anything, I believe that this past semester has been a bigger motivation to me to excel in my second semester than I would otherwise. I fully understand the decision to withdraw me from the college, and I realize what a blessing it would be to be able to come back. If I were given the opportunity to return, I believe I would feel a greater sense of appreciation and motivation than most people at the school. I do not want to go back solely for my friends and family’s satisfaction or to save face, but because I genuinely believe that I have reflected and learned enough from first semester to go back the second semester and reverse everything that I did wrong.

ebay as the Monopoly online trading website, does anybody think they pretty much do whatever they want and careless about their users? Here is what ive been suffered from ebay, first they suspended my ebay account opened since 2006 for no reason, i called no less than 20 times in two months been trying to find out why they did that and when they can activate my account, those phone customer reps first told me they have activated my account check after 48 hrs, so i waited, but it was still suspended, then i called many times, they told me its being investigating just wait, they are not in the positions that they can tell me what is going because its’ secret”, I was like seriously, what? i feel like i rent an apt and they landlord kick me out for no reason and tells me that its a secret, its so ridiculous how they treat their customers, because no big company will blacklist a good customer for no reason and tell them its a secret, so unprofessional, so unprofessional, but I needed to sell stuffs ASAP( i have never sold anything on ebay), so two months later today i tried to register a new account through ebay and after i filled out my info with new email address(the email address linked to my old account cant be used) it pops up” we are having problems right now, please try again later”, and i tried to register in different places it didnt work, so i called ebay, the rep told me because i use google, try to clean the cache and cookies before i register, so i did, and it didnt work, then she said probably you are using google, try to use firefox, cause the website is not down and have no problems, then i told her, seriously? everybody uses google, i dont think its google its ebay, and she told me they will do investigation call back 24 hrs, they will tell me what is the problems, this is definitely same thing playing over again, i believe ebay does many ebay users wrong not just me, a big company like ebay plays their customers like they are nothing, do stuffs for no reasons and wont give their users answers they need, truly Monopoly, why it still existing? if amazon go international i will solely use amazon, open seller account from amazon, because i m trying to sell stuffs international

I need to get a letter of medical necessity from my doctor so I can get a rolfing procedure done at a chiro/rolfing office not affiliated with said doctor. I need the letter of med. necessity so I can use my health care reimbursement account, pre-tax medical funds taken out of my work pay check, to pay for it.
My question: what sort things should I say to my doctor so I ‘seal the deal’ and get said letter out of him/her? I was just going to talk about my stiff neck and back and my chiro. and spinal health history but I was hoping for some key talking points to make my case.

Is it because writing stories is too much work? Much easier and a lot more relaxing to just listen to some nice melodious music on YouTube, and like read the fun comments on it.
Temple, come back. You can have your niche back.
