College Things
15 years ago
I got accepted into UW-Eau Claire, and I'm finding that pretty exciting. The drama of opening the envelope to see the result was nonexistent because it said so on the envelope, which I found kind of annoying. I think Madison will be more discreet because it seems more formal and likes to waste a lot of paper doing things.
Also TJ got accepted into UW-EC and will likely go there. We have often talked about being dorm-buddies. I both anticipate and fear that.
I applied for my auditions. They will be in January. I'm kind of nervous, but I think that I will be okay. Hopefully..! I should have done them in November but I am lazy and that is pretty much the reason.
I have also considered applying for Lawrence University, which is one of the best music schools and also the only conservatory in Wisconsin. Unfortunately, it is also the most expensive. For that reason I have steered clear of it (also I fear I wouldn't get in anyways), but my mother is convincing me otherwise.
If I got in to Lawrence, that would be amazing without a doubt, but that would mean that I would not be in Eau Claire with TJ. The opportunity costs seem endless.
I'm taking the ACT again tomorrow morning. I got a 27 last time but Madison requires the Writing test. Fucking Madison. This time I have a calculator, though... so I hope to do better.
I do not believe that there is other news that is worth sharing tonight.
EDIT: Also I met ice-block today. He is new to FA and I just came across him on the front page. He is pretty good and you should check him out.

And, that's great, I plan to go back to college myself within 2011.
Also yeah, condoms. Need those I get attacked by some mad Spokemon. Like this one: http://felidaeghost.deviantart.com/.....36268&qo=6
And, that's all I've done so far ROFL
Going to a college with 1 person you know is a small thing, but very nice. The few people I already knew from high school at U of T are still my closer friends. I would be careful to still choose your favourite college though, because you will make friends anywhere, and can remain friends with people who go to a different college. You've probably heard 6 people say a variation of this though.
Also, I really want to come out to him before I room with him. It would be so weird otherwise. If I come out and we stop being friends, an upside I guess is that I won't have to worry about Eau Claire as much.
I hope I keep some high school friends while in college. I have no idea where I will live when I get out, so it could be really far away!
