Top three college choices, in order of preference:
1) Brown University
2) Northwestern University
3) University of California - Berkeley
Colleges which, statistically, I really should have gotten into:
3) University of California - Berkeley
Colleges for which admission was unlikely, but still a good possibility:
2) Northwestern University
Colleges for which admission was very unlikely due to the caliber of the school in addition to the expected relative lack of numerical supremacy required to achieve admission, but for which I think, perhaps, I deserved admission on account of some sense of personal merit that may or may not be self-created, despite repeated efforts of multiple people to assure me that I did, in actuality, deserve a spot amidst such an intellectual atmosphere that I am now forced to expunge and excommunicate from my mind with the hope of forgetting how happy I most likely would have been in said environment:
1) Brown University
And, to an extent:
2) Northwestern University
Colleges which, in the last two days, have denied my admission:
1) Brown University
2) Northwestern University
3) University of California - Berkeley
Current state of self-worth, self-esteem, personal merit, personal accomplishment, happiness, emotional well-being, "thing" that encompasses a sense of completing a four-year mission that results in successfully meeting a goal that leads to new, superior goals:
0) FUCK IT.
