Post break, a new term!

I'm now applied to a 4 year college. Just need to get my transcripts sent over.

I love college so much, I miss being there.

EVEN MORE THEN REGULAR SCHOOL.

So free there.

Going back to Community College in the fall, IF financial aid goes through.

I'd rather the world betray me, but I won't betray the world.

I'm heading back to college in a couple of weeks, although I haven't decided yet whether I'm going to get another Bachelor's degree or go to grad school or what. Should be a good time, at least.

The Financial Aid people told me to come back next week if I wanted the 2010 FAFSA.

Yeah, I got denied an on-campus job. My resume could've used that job...

Paying for college isn't a problem for me.

Do I sound like I'm gloating?

Fuck All Fafsa's Stupid incomeAnalysis

and there ya'll go.

I haven't posted on this before because I didn't know it existed, but I got accepted to Seattle University today (with a $16,000/year scholarship...which I'll hopefully turn down...) and finally received this from the University of Washington:

We have reviewed your application. We will inform you by postal mail when a decision is made. They had that damn four-essay-fifteen page app for 56 days.

Congratulations for at least being accepted into Seattle University, even though it doesn't seem to be your first choice.

I'm an idiot and didn't pay the enrollment fee earlier, and now I'm afraid it might be too late. I can't check, though, because, once again, I'm an idiot, and forgot my password for the website  *

. Also, making this new password is a bitch, because I keep having fucking English words, which isn't allowed anymore.

Do what I do and type random gibberish based on an SMS traditional text keypad, then append characters at the end. For example, Mapi = 6274.

I typically use acronyms based on my favourite shows. For instance, msg08mst That's not one I use currently. Although, I might use it in the future...

Nah, it's cool. And this time I'm saving this shit. I'm pretty sure that last time I couldn't because I did it at school, anyway. I also think I'm gonna change my email for the school, assuming I figure out how.

Also, good: it doesn't list a deadline for paying the enrollment fee. Now I just need to apply for housing on Saturday, which, guess what, I should've done in November!

Why did no one fucking tell me this in goddamn November?!

I'm doing okay. Though it costs a ridiculous amount of money.

It always does. :/

I got a BIG letter from UW today. smile Actually, it was very small, but it said on front "The BIG Letter." My parents started crying, and then I did, partly because I missed a due date to apply to WSU honors, and would be fucked if I hadn't gotten into UW.

Oh, and @Lucky—I'm sure if you call SU they'll help you out. They want applicants, so they'll make sure you get it in.
