I am proud of you, Seth.

Congrats on the acceptances :-) You'll turn it around, I bet.

Re: City in Harlem, I used to live right around there. It's a nice neighborhood, especially if you keep a little west of campus (can't vouch for east, but I don't know where the dorms would be). Hunter's a great option as well. All good stuff.

I know online opinions are worth far less than the regular 2 cents, but these are my thoughts, if you want 'em: Go to the college you want to go to. Go into debt if you need to, provided you've got a half-credible game plan to get back out later. Either way, do yourself a favor and use the shit out of the opportunities you get there. It'll keep you focused, at least, and you'll avoid the soul-draining academic inertia of the regular college routine. And that helps.

Years on and off this site, it's good to hear you are on the up and up. Well done and I hope the spring semester goes well for ya.

[ipsenaut]

Thank you, but.
It was a bureaucratic error that got me accepted to those schools. I will have to go to community college after all. Things are on the up and up, but not up, up and away. Not quite yet.

[dooriya]

They are up indeed if you are in school. That is all that matters.

i hope i didn't just freak you out by IMing you. I saw your name on the SA aim thread, and was like, whoaaaa that's weird I just was reading that guy's journal!
