As you may know, there has been a lot of bullshit when it comes to me applying to schools for the fall (Damn Katrina!!!). I am starting to have even more complications with applications and acceptances. For example, FSU told me to apply as a transfer; however, the person that was reviewing my applications didn’t know that I was told this, and he or she didn’t know that I was a “Katrina student,” so I was denied. I called them and they said that they would check it out. There might be a problem at the College of Charleston too. I was told to apply as a transfer there as well; however, when I spoke to my counselor there, she told me that it would have been nice if I had more college experience. I then asked her, how would that have been possible given my situation? I mean, it’s stupid. I’m sick of all of this shit. She made it sound like I wasn’t going to get in because I didn’t have enough hours. I wanted to cuss her ass out and say, “Why the hell would you tell me to apply as a transfer when you knew I didn’t have enough hours?
::BIG sigh::
But this all ended up being a good thing. I didn’t want to go to CofC. I only liked it because it is pretty and close to home. I wouldn’t fit in there. I’m not preppy enough. I’ve decided on the University of San Francisco. That is more me. It was my first choice school back when I was a freshman in high school. It’s also a Jesuit school, which I like. I’m not sure why I like Jesuit schools. I’m not even religious, but oh well. Plus, I think San Fran is a more creative place, and I would have more opportunities there.
Well, that was a good vent. TTYL
