i keep feeling like i'm winning prizes, or the academic lottery maybe. so far i haven't been rejected by any ucs. i feel hella good about it, but at the same time i feel bad for my buddies that didn't get in, & i feel guilty whenever i express my happiness about it. so far i got into: uc davis, uc irvine, ucla, uc san diego, & uc santa cruz. that's 5 for 5 right now. the only school i'm still waiting for is berkeley, & that decision doesn't come out till the 30th.

i'm hella surprised because i never thought i would get into even one uc, much less 5/6 of them (so far). i feel hella lucky & proud. despite all the shit i've been through, & because of all the hard work i've put in, i'm actually GOING TO COLLEGE! not just a community college or a state one, but a friggin UC! a friggin former dropout going to the university of california. that's prestige right there. although i am not without obstacles at the moment, because there ARE certain embittered individuals that strive to bring me down throughout this process, but i say, FUCK THEM. i got in, they didn't. pure jealousy. end of story.

anyway.. damn. pat yourself on the back, jessy. MAN.
