I just got back for a lovely day out and about in downtown San Jose. No sarcasm. It was actually very lovely. I'm a bit stressed right now, mostly because they just loooove to make things hard on you...this mysterious 'they' being the government, faculty and staff of every University and even Community college I've ever been to, and random people in general. But, besides all the bad news I have in store for you all, I'm feeling pretty good.
It looks like I won't be going to SJSU in the fall, mostly because I don't have the proper transfer credits and an SAT score to show them. I've looked into the SAT thing, and the soonest I could take one would be on April 1st, which so happens to be the deadline for SJSU applications. If, and that's a big if, they would take the SAT score that day...which is highly improbable considering the soonest -I'd- be able to have the score is late May...I still probably wouldn't be able to get into SJSU because I didn't finish my English comp. requirement and also critical thinking. So...what it looks like I'm going to have to do is apply at De Anza for Spring quarter. De Anza goes in quarters, so right now from Jan. 9 (I missed this deadline too) to April...something...is Winter Quarter. April something to June something is Spring. Here's my dilemma. I'm torn between two options. I am thinking of applying for the SAT, throwing everything into trying to apply late as a transfer student to SJSU, hoping they accept my SAT scores late, hoping they don't care about my english deficiencies, and seeing what happens. The other consideration is to just finish my 60 credits, get my AA and transfer for next Fall to SJSU. The latter is safer. And it puts off the University for yet ANOTHER year. But, even if I'm going to De Anza, I'm still working towards something...*sigh* I just don't know what the right answer is. I'm such a slacker, I should have been looking into this stuff sooner than now. Then at least I could have been taking classes in the Winter Quarter. BLAHHHH.
I still have a cheery demeanor though. I feel good. I'm laughing inside. Even depressing songs aren't getting me down right now. I think I'm going to clean my room, because it's starting to look like a pig sty. Oh, and the whole no playing WoW thingy...? Yeah...I'm gonna play tonight. Because I actually got shit accomplished today.
Basically, in the next few days I'm gonna be making some decisions about this whole 'school' thing. I'll keep everyone updated. Till then, I'll be cleaning, listening to music, writing..hopefully...I'll post in my art journal if I do write. I might actually sketch out some stuff. I so desperately want to get a damn webcomic going (considering I've been working on it for the past..like....4 years...lol). I just...get all bollocksed up when I start to think about it. Especially the site management. I know DICK about webprogramming...and I don't really want to learn about it. There's too much other shit I need to learn about to fit that in.
So, for now...I suppose I'll dredge out some other lyrics to keep me happy.
The breath of the morning
I keep forgetting
The smell of the warm summer air
I live in a town
Where you can't smell a thing
You watch your feet
For cracks in the pavement
Up above
Aliens hover
Making home movies
For the folks back home
Of all these weird creatures
Who lock up their spirits
Drill holes in themselves
And live for their secrets
They're all uptight
Uptight..
I wish that they'd swoop down in a country lane
Late at night when I'm driving
Take me on board their beautiful ship
Show me the world as I'd love to see it
I'd tell all my friends
But they'd never believe
They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely
I'd show them the stars
And the meaning of life
They'd shut me away
But I'd be all right
All right..
I'm just uptight
Uptight..
