Since I got thrown out from university due to failing by one mark, my attitude towards alot of things has changed.
I find that things that easily used to fill my day now become boring and I have been very quick to try get towards the other career path I wished to have since before University.

I studied Physiotherapy and have always had a love for Art so am now persuing a career in Tattoo Art, but alot of my family still hold the failure of university towards me. I feel slight resentment to them all as they have not been to university themselves or further education so they do not understand the pressure I was going through.

Is it wrong that I feel angry at them still because of them bringing up the past and not letting me move forward?

    I feel ya. I can't stand when people judge others based on experiences they've never had. One day I came home from University and expressed to my boyfriend's grandmother that I had gotten a D on my Theories of Personality test (which is not only a class not connected to my major, but is one of the toughest psychology classes I could have taken). It was the first D I'd gotten on a test in college and I was adjusting to a new university. She responded all high-and-mightily that when SHE did bookwork she got *A's* on her tests. The "bookwork" she was referring to was for a class she took that was associated with a warehouse job.
