Where I'm Going...

I know where I want to go now (University). Or at least, I'm finally admitting it.

And so by saying it, it becomes real... )

university of rochester, life, choices, university, personal

I feel so accomplished when I make a decision. xD I finally decided "I'm gonna go work at that ghetto Chuck E Cheese place". and today I got free candy, cake and ice cream from a lady who gave her leftovers to the employees.

See? Decision making leads to free food.

I want to go to school in California. Can't remember the name off the top of my head xD

Hah, I know. Once the decision is done it feels like so much has happened when really nothing but your mindset has really changed.

Decision-making=free food. Now, with that logic who would avoid decision making? :) ---Hah, plus you get paid and that's always a bonus.

California's pretty nice. I considered Stanford for awhile, but not anymore.

Stanford? Nah, too uppity. I need a more arts-heavy college or I'm not gonna get by (or even get in). My math skills are like... in the red. Fail fail faility fail.

I'm sure your math is not that bad. (That's more or less why I turned the thought of Stanford over. Too strict and not so 'free' of a school. Even if their psych program seemed interesting.) Besides, alot of colleges aren't really focused on whether or not you're great at everything, but that you could be a solid 'fit' for their school.
There's even schools where you don't really have take math (or you know, hard math) their open curriculums let you pick and choose what you want to study. They don't tell you what classes to take. That's why I love Rochester. It's all about choices and what you want.

There's a couple schools with open curriculum (like the one I mentioned) but the only ones I'm aware of are up north.

University of Rochester (my choice ^_^) is in Rochester, New York (close to Canada).
Brown University has it, and it's in Providence, Rhode Island.
Smith college has it, and it's in Northampton, Massachusetts.

I know there's more schools with open curricula, but I'm not sure of their names. There's a list about roughly fifteen or so. I think if you google it or look up on wikipedia it should give you a list of some sort.
