don't know, skunk...but, i am goin US this year (state u or others)...our country's political situation is at its worst. And if the polls are not held (there is high possiblity of no or incomplete polls), well, u can imagine the scenario...so, gotta go now. It's my opinion...who knows, US may deny giving visa if the political situation goes terribly bad....

I am just accounting that this thing may likely occur. what do you think, skunk?

I still have Williams, Whitman, Qunnipiac and Westminster...let's see....I will be in...can't blame a guy for hopin...haha

haven't got anything from Carleton, so it must be a rejection. Mac rejected.
haha. this is getting to be a habit.

i'm not really sure about what i'm going to do. i'll wait and explore my options for the next week or so. maybe i'll take another gap year and this time write "proper" goody-goody essays, none of that dark stuff, and show a hell lot of interest in every college that i apply to. that means at least 200 emails in total.

well, skunk, that is also an option...

An excerpt from Harvard rejection letter

"Past experience suggests that the particular college a student attends is far less important than what the student does to develop his or her strengths and talents over the next four years."

The only Ivy I applied to was Cornell. Don't like any others.
Actually, don't even like Cornell anymore
