<p>You will. I will too.</p>
<p>I mean, whatever city I go to college in. Not necessarily Chicago. Even my Hannity-lovin’ dad said to tell people I’m from Buffalo, where he’s from.</p>
<p>Anyone want to read my Common App essay? I’m having some second thoughts about it, because it’s kind of intricate and on the spectrum of showing vs. telling, it shows far, far too much, and doesn’t make complete sense after just a first read. But it did contribute to my deferral from Yale, which is pretty rare here, given that apparently no one likes Canada.</p>
<p>Yes. Sure. </p>
<p>No one likes Canada because you can’t like a non-entity. </p>
<p>My essays have stalled. Adshgwlibgalkegnv;ewirbngu</p>
<p>No one likes Canada until they travel abroad and realize how much easier life would be if America became the 14th province.</p>
<p>CRAP CRAP CRAP Pomona had an extra form that I completely forgot to give my counselor. </p>
<p>CRAP CRAP CRAP where should I apply instead?</p>
<p>CRAP CRAP CRAP</p>
<p>Why not set myself up for failure with Stanford? </p>
<p>I think I will.</p>
<p>Your teacher recommendations and things like that can be submitted after the deadline, because they aren’t directly your responsibility.</p>
<p>But it was a whole separate school report form thing, like to go with the school report on the common app. I mean, I guess I could give my counselor the form when we get back. But still, crap crap crap </p>
<p>On the bright side, I might see Avatar in the next few days. Who cares about essays when there are blue people??</p>
<p>Also, your Common App essay, Canada. Is it about moose and bears and how cool it is to be so close to Sarah Palin and Russia?</p>
<p>Snoop, the forms are fine. As long as they get them within a week and a half of the deadline or so, it’s all good.</p>
<p>I realized how next year I’ll be committing academic suicide.</p>
<p>My counselor is kind of flaky, though…eh. I’ll apply anyway, they’ll get their freaking form a month late, is all. </p>
<p>Oh yeah, I kind of got a 720 on my Latin SAT Subject Test. Yeah. I’m so cool.</p>
<p>Sent my scores everywhere, Pomona included. Hmm. I should probs finish those applications.</p>

<p>Sometimes I think I have no life.</p>
<p>Christopher Alexander is a genius. GENIUS.</p>
<p>Elaborate.</p>
<p>Still haven’t worked on those apps. Or my homework. There’s a great possibility tomorrow will suck.</p>
<p>I got A Pattern Language for Christmas. It’s rather inspiring. And genius.</p>
<p>I’m suffering from another round of my French pop addiction.</p>
<p>Cheese and rice.</p>
<p>I ate so many cookies. So many. I did write down all my basic ideas about my movie. But so many cookies.</p>
<p>Cookies are inspiring. You shouldn’t feel bad about it.</p>
<p>Unless you’re talking about cheese and rice cookies. In that case, you failed.</p>
<p>I am about to freak out. On the common app, on the forms for my guidance counselor, they do submit my transcript online, don’t they? Does my question make sense? Am I being silly?</p>
<p>Because I’m looking at a long list of the app requirements for Rice and it looks like the transcript has to be mailed separately, or maybe the cookies have gotten to me. My counselor made it sound like she submitted everything online, but now, I’m confused.</p>
<p>My counselor mailed the transcripts, teacher recommendations, and counselor recommendations together. He was old and didn’t know how to do anything online. If your counselor said she submits everything online, I guess that’s possible, but that’s not the way my counselor did it. It will all work out. Just chill. If they don’t have something, they’ll pester you for it. The college will probably get everything though, so stop worrying so much.</p>
<p>I’m watching all my Arrested Development dvds again. Instead of writing all the essays and questions I need to do.</p>
<p>I’ll be fineeeeeee.</p>
