Wheee-hoo, more Icons! yaaaa. And also the typical rant about my life and why I dun liek it nun. xD Just kidding, I'm fine with my life. Actually, today I found out that I got into all the colleges that I applied to! Which was rather quite shocking!
YOU MAY ALSO NOTICE I HAVE A NEW LAYOUT! I made the header image myself but the codes are from The Butterfly Box.
Today at about 9.30 in the morning (it was early, I know because I wanted to sleep but no the doorbell rang) I got a Fed-Ex envelope and it was for me! Well, I never get Fed-Ex envelops (not in never ever) and so I was rather scared... I blearily looked at the from address and made out "University of King's College". Dramatic Gasp Here. So I carefully opened the folder. And then I carefully pulled out the nice fancy grey envelope with my name on it. And then I rather uncarefully sliced open the sealed part with my finger (it was sort of like I ripped into it xD). And then I got a nice letter that says I have been accepted and I was very happy! What a nice way to start off a holiday from school! And here I was thinking I had gotten my Math Final sent to my house because I failed so epically (but more on that later).
So, with this envelope, I am now 8 for 8 with the schools I have applied to. Of these 8 I really only want to go to 2, maybe 3. I could have saved a lot of money, but oh well.
Also I realized that I am sort of staking a lot on this Dalhousie University visit that I'm going on on February 11th (YEAH IT'S REALY SOON N STUFF!). I mean, my "second choice" school (DePaul), I could have applied for honors college but I didn't. I sort of... don't know what to say. They recommend that you send your stuff in 2 weeks after receiving your acceptance letter, but the deadline isn't even until February 15th! So, I don't know. I suppose I COULD still send in my application, but I need teacher recs and it's sort of close to the deadline. I don't know. I suppose I could... But. If I go to DePaul I have to live at home with my parents for four more years. And I don't really want to live at home for more years of my life. That's why I think that if Dal doesn't work (please, please PLEASE please work) I might go to Loyola. It's still in Chicago and it's right on the water and they have enough housing for everyone (at least I think so) and I wouldn't have to live at home. However I might go to this one school in Kalamazoo Michigan in which I can major in public history. It's also not too far from home, which is really nice. And I'm going to look at it before I go to Dal, so hopefully it, too, is nice and I'll be able to view them both with an un-biased eye (though I know nothing about this school. Western Michigan University, anyone?).
So, about that math final... I got a 62%. That's a D... It was only a few points away from a C, too. So in hindsight I'm kicking myself. Now, Dal and King's require that you send your semester exam grades. Hopefully they don't withdraw their admissions decision based on one bad (really bad) exam... Do you think they will? All my other exams, I think, were pretty (if not really) good. That, and they've already seen my transcripts, so they should have some idea of how I get along with math (sort of like oil and water, or oil and vinegar). I don't know. I do well enough in class most days, if I study for the quizes, but I never seem to do well in Exams. Maybe it's because I don't study enough (xD) or maybe I just can't retain that much mathematical information.... And I sort of lose focus studying for something if I get easily frustrated by it (like Math). I don't know. I'm not really a math-and-sciences sort of person.
Anyway. I think that's about all for me today. I've written about everything I care to write to, or want to write about. xD
And I'm sort of having crush-issues. But. I've learned not to give them much thought and not let them consume your life. That, and, I don't even know if it really is a crush. So. xDD
