My school is conservative (though public) and has a closed forum policy. Basically, no clubs allowed. : (

I’m aiming for Chapman’s Dodge College. It’s close, new, and definitely the right pick for me. I’ve pretty much given up on USC. The film program is less than 2%. UCLA’s film program does not enroll until sophomore year, so you have to pick an arts major and sit in limbo. UCSB is nice, and I probably could get in, but it’s not like Dodge College.

Will essay contests go well? I won this “UN” award about saving the Earth and blah blah blah. I think it was international or something…does that look good? What is this good certificate program?

My mom suggests I take a film class at the local cc, but that would suck up a significant chunk of my summer. I’m volunteering at the Jewish Film Festival and hopefully San Diego Film Festival. I was accepted for the Spirit Awards but neglected to lie about my age and so was promptly rejected the next day…

I need something cheap/free/easy and CLOSE. LA is way too far for me. I’m going crazy here!!!
