i guess my parents have been talking about where i'm going to college recently without me knowing. i think they were discussing about me going to new york and how i've decided i wanted to go. they told me they wouldn't feel safe letting me go there on my own and whatnot, and that they'd always worry how i was doing... but then again, doesn't every parent worry about that if their child is going off to college in a different state?
my mom would rather me go to california or somewhere else, because she claims that new york is so much further away and that it's too messy with all the the stuff going on and how they always hear about people getting robbed or shot or something in the subway -- which will be my primary method of transportation. but so what? it isn't as if houston is any better... it just seems that way cause we live here. right? right. houston still has a lot of crime and stuff -- it all just depends on the area you live in.
but i am still determined to go to new york. california is a side note i'll have to think about, but i have this gut feeling that if i get accepted to new york, i will be a very happy camper and i will learn to adjust. better start praying... which BETTER pay off cause i'm currently working my ass off trying to get a portfolio finished before all these deadlines. DKJFBAKJBGSD. i want my ACT scores. NOW!
they also asked me if any of my friends were going to new york. and i was like "not that i know of...?" and she was like "then why do YOU want to go to new york? all by yourself?" and i'm thinking "uh, i'm not going to prevent me from getting ot my goal because some of my friends aren't going to the school i want to go to?" i bet it would be totally different if i was going to medical school and none of my friends were going, she'd be all "go! why do you have to do what your friends do?" in my case, i have the ability to use the cliched phrase: "if all my friends jumped off a cliff, would you want me to jump off of one too?" -- except mine is... modified.
i am destined to be in new york. end of discussion. nobody will stop me. not even the fact that i have to leave my car here cause traffic in ny is ass. *sniff* i will miss you lulu.
