<p>ok so I never met my guidance counselor until senior year. Yes SENIOR YEAR! When I read my reaches to her she actually LAUGHED…like LAUGHED out loud when I started listing Ivy’s. Well screw her because I’m going to an Ivy league school. What made that situation worse was that I told one of my friends and she mentioned it to my counselor as a joke. My counselor then called me down and had a really awkward meeting about it with me. Another time my mom wrote an email about some random thing that I needed and she called me down to the office again and made jokes about how my mom was really offensive and controlling. </p>
<p>Well by the end of the year I did end up liking her. She went to college in the same town that I am going to be going to so we talked about the town a lot. I also did stuff like bring her flowers for writing me a recommendation so she warmed up to me and we have had some nice conversations since then. </p>
<p>But wat a crazy experience!! I still can’t get over the laughing part!!! (ps It’s probably also because my class is less than 150 and a LARGE chunk of it goes to local CT state schools. Noone goes to Ivy’s so…) But ugh!</p>
