Ah! Galaxy got into Columbia early decision! Congrats! I'm so jealous. Not of the Columbia part (I wouldn't want to go there, personally. Hate the core curriculum), but the fact that she knows where she's going to go to college and she doesn't have to worry anymore and she doesn't really have to worry about her grades. But yeah, anyways, that's really awesome for her.

I've been sucking at being on livejournal, but I've been really busy. I was sick Monday and Tuesday-ish (missed 4th-6th period and jazz band Monday, and Symphony on Tuesday) and I have a lot of tests/quizzes and stuff and my grades are slipping and AP English is freaking me out (we have a proposal for a paper with like 6 body paragraphs due and we don't have to actually write it but I don't really know where to even start with it and all my essays in high school have been in class and so it was acceptable when they were only like one body paragraph and a page and a half. And we also have to write a 10-minute absurdist play in about two weeks, and I am even more lost about that) and yeah. I can't wait until second semester. I just wish first semester would end before winter break like most normal schools so I'd be done with it in just a few weeks. blah.

a;lkjaf wtf?! I got a username and password to check to make sure I had all my materials in for Lewis and Clark, and I checked the scores they had received and somehow my ACT scores were all completely wrong! They had me at like 24 for science when I got a 33, and 28 for math when I got a 34, and overall 29 when I had a 33! wtf! And then I looked at Amherst and there's this new set of SAT scores from 11/01/06 (I didn't even take the SAT then! ...although the scores are actually better than mine so I'm slightly tempted to just leave that alone). And the scores were fine like a month ago so I'm not sure why they're screwed up now, but it's totally freaking me out that my scores are screwed up for all the colleges and ahhh so don't need this stress. My mom's going to call the school's tomorrow and figure out what the deal is, but wtf. This is freaking me out.

Edit: What's also weird for Lewis and Clark is that I clicked on admission status just to see what it said even though decisions don't come out until mid-January, and it says "Admitted as of 11/28/2006". Which, what? It'd be cool if it was correct, but considering the errors in my ACT scores and the fact that decisions aren't supposed to come out for over a month, I don't believe it.

I'm tired of applying to college. It's getting to be too stressful, and I've even finished all my apps! I don't think I even mentioned here how my Colorado College app was due 11/15 and I got an e-mail from them two days ago saying they hadn't received my second teacher rec, but when I asked Mrs. Bunch about it, she swore she sent it, so she ended up having to fax the rec again even though it's over 2 weeks late. gah.

It needs to be May.
