Angelina Pivarnick -- Thank GOD 'Jersey Shore' Is Over

Former "Jersey Shore" cast member Angelina Pivarnick couldn't be happier MTV pulled the plug on the show -- telling TMZ, now that it's finally over ... her life might actually stop sucking.

In case you didn't know, MTV announced the 6th season of "Jersey Shore" will be its last -- and Angelina tells us, it couldn't have happened soon enough.

“The show had a good run but now it’s time to move on and do other things. I’m relieved it's over, but still sad over the way I was portrayed on the show."

She adds, "Now that 'Jersey Shore' is done, hopefully one day down the road I can be looked at better."

Angelina was booted from the cast after season 2 -- and was pretty much a pariah while on the show ... and outside the show too.

As for what she's doing now -- Angelina says she's taking acting classes in New York.
