Rejected from Claremont McKenna and waitlisted at Pitzer. I'd rather go to Claremont, but Pitzer is making me more irritated. I didn't expect to get in at Claremont McKenna (according to collegeboard.com their acceptance rate has gotten really small recently, it's like... 22% now?), but Pitzer? Come on. They have a higher acceptance rate than Colorado College but I got in there. My stats are way above their averages. But I read somewhere else someone got a 4.2 weighted and a 2390 SAT and they were also waitlisted, while someone else got like... 1900 SAT and 3.7 weighted GPA and got in, and I'm thinking that Pitzer's just being really sensitive about being used as a safety and is rejecting people with higher stats than their averages because they think they won't go, because my college counselor told me before I even applied that they had been known to do that. I mean, I thought I showed enough interest, but... I guess not. blah. Now I'm more freaked out than ever about Vassar because I want to go there so badly and now it's like I'm not even getting in anywhere else so if I don't get in it's not like I can be like "Well, it's ok, because I got into Claremont McKenna and I really liked that school." Man, I thought I'd get at least waitlisted at Claremont. This is really disappointing and really discouraging.

Yesterday morning I went up to Claremont and visited Pomona and Claremont McKenna. And then on the way home, I threw up twice. bleh. But I still ended up going to school today, and I feel better, but still kind of weak. I may take a nap soon, like Galaxy is currently doing in my family room.

Anyways, Pomona was ok, but I really loved Claremont McKenna. I'm pretty sure I want to apply there, but we'll see. I may change my mind in a few months.

My parents are going to see Social Distortion tonight at the Anaheim House of Blues. Not fair at all. Of course, my mom wouldn't let me go anyways because of being sick (or actually, because of having Symphony tonight, which I would be going to if I were not sick), but still. Not fair.

Anyways. Tired. Going to finish schoolwork for tomorrow and then sleep, I gues.
