| I'm going to ucsd if I get rejected from LA and Berk. It would be a blessing in disguise since I already know 50+ people there and my 2 of my best friends will room over there with me if I choose to go there. So getting rejected from LA is a blessing in disguise for me, I hope to really grow as a person and learn mature much more in college, not just get the best possible name for myself. I'm actually a really nice person outside of this blunt ****** e-persona. | |

| What's your major?
I kind of feel that way too--I'd go to Berkeley if I got in, of course, but LA I'm almost hoping I don't get accepted. | |

| i applied as an english major for sd, linguistics + english for LA, with Tap and a pretty decent gpa (3.4 ish) I really think I'll probably get in -.-. Going to La I'd would enable me to come back to my church every weekend since it's relatively close. Ah the pros and cons don't really out-weigh one another with between LA and Sd. | |

| Oh no don't get me wrong, if I get into LA I'm going. My mom will force me, she does pay for my car and education after all. I'm just hoping I do get rejected so I can go to SD and have a really awesome time. But I can't ignore LA's prestige either D: | |

| If not LA, then Cal. If not Cal, then UCSD. If not UCSD (which won't happen since I already got in, lol) then Davis. If not Davis (still pending) then peace corp.
Seriously, I'll join the peace corp. Then I'll reapply when I get back. | |

| Not to rain on your parade but I am almost positive that you need your bachelors to get in the Peace Corps. | |

| Transfer admission rates are different for every major. The School of Theater Film and Television at UCLA for example, had a 3 to 4% admit rate. | |

If not Cal, then LA. If not LA, then UCSD. If not UCSD (which won't happen since I already got in, lol) then Davis. If not Davis (still pending) then starting over fresh at Mission Community College while changing my major to astro-physics and getting straight A+s. That's the hottest plan. | |

| lol.
going to nepal would be pretty cool. i would live in an orphanage and teach english. but the fact that i'm asian would be a bit complicated... also i just came back from ghana. i'm banking on the fact that if for some reason, my last part of the plan must be carried out, that i'll be ready to leave the country again, lol.
no place like home, as they say. | |

| What are you majoring in? Social Welfare? English? Your career path seems so adventurous and unconventional; it's so different than my path of wanting to be in Human Resources in a big corporation, haha. | |
