I didn't make All Southern. [shrug] Oh well. I knew my audition wasn't that great. It sucks, but it's not the end of the world. Actually, the worst part is going to be tomorrow when everyone else has got their letters as well and most of my friends have made it (I'm assuming) and then I'll have to tell everyone 5000 times that no, I did not make it.
Yesterday I had Symphony, so afterschool I hung out with friends till it started, and then I didn't get home until 8 and I just studied for 3 hours straight for my math test. So, trying to catch up with my friendslist now.
Instead of telling me things these days, now that my mom found out what my e-mail address is, she just e-mails me everything. It's getting kind of ridiculous, actually. But anyways, so she e-mails my college counselor back and forth about times and stuff and forwards the details to me, and I read one and... she's just completely making stuff up about what I've said. It's bizarre. First she said that I claimed an interest in checking out USF, which, no, never said. But I guess I can understand that maybe she could think that. I mean, it's not totally unreasonable. But then she said how I'm starting to feel like the "right fit" might be a big school as it would offer the widest range of things to do for someone like me who isn't quite sure about what they want to do. Which, uh. wtf? I've never said anything like that. If anything, I've said that I'd prefer a smaller school. The closest thing I've said to any of this is when people ask me what I want to do or what college I want to go to and I say "I don't know" and they say "You must have SOME idea" and then I say "No. I really, really, don't," and they still don't believe me, and in any case, that's still nowhere near what she said here. I have no idea where she's getting this all from. It's just very weird.
Blah. Anyways. I thought I had more to say, but I guess I don't.

I am almost 23 and have no clue about what I really want :/ I mean, people could give advice on stuff, but bugging you with that one question all the time and not believing - so not helpful...You should talk to your mom, about making up that stuff about things you´ve "said". *hugs*

Date: 2006-01-13 03:10 am (UTC)I know, it's irritating when no one believes that I have no idea what I want. I'm interested and pretty good at several different areas of stuff, and one day I'll think "I want to be a psychologist" and the next I'll think "No, I want to do something related to math" and the next I'll think "No, I want to become a teacher" and I just can never make up my mind.
I actually did mention it to my mom, and she told me that it must have been my dad that said USF looked interesting and she must have confused him with me, and she swears to god that she remembers me saying that I would be interested in a larger school, which I don't remember ever thinking, let alone saying, but at least it's not something that she just completely made up.
