Further school thoughts

 I can't believe I slept so much today. It was such a waste of a day. Whenever I take anything it always knocks me out so much, it's crazy.


So anyway, I decided I'm definitely applying to UW. There are actually a lot more reasons for it than you'd think. I know why people are going to think I'm applying there, and they can think that if they want. Maybe that's a subconscious reason, who knows.

Ever since I was little though, I've always been attracted to the west coast. Originally it was Cali that I really wanted to go to, particularly LA. Well, it's too late for a UCLA app, and even then I doubt I'd get in there.

Even if I could app still to UCLA, I'd still want to app to UW. I really like Seattle the times I've went there. It just gives you a certain feeling that's hard to describe. It's similar to the feeling you get when in Manhattan, but it's different too. It's more calm and serene kinda. Maybe because of the nearby mountains. I don't know, it's hard to explain, but I do really like it there.

The schools pretty good too, about as good as I can possibly get into at least. I also know someone there which is another plus I suppose. They also have a bunch of different programs, so I'm not pigeon-holed into anything, which is nice because, let's be honest, I still don't know what I want to be going for.

Let's see, there's Journalism, Psychology, all of the Business Administration options and yes, people will be surprised by this, but I'm also toying with the idea of one of the medical majors, particularly nursing and laboratory medicine. How I'm going to make a decision on what I fill in on the app as my choice of major, I have no idea. At least at UW though it seems like double majoring is easier than it woulda been at most schools *cough* stupid Adrian *cough*.


So with UW added, that brings my list of schools I can possibly get into up to, what? 3? Yeah, I think it's 3. UW, Northeastern, Princeton.
And with Penn state, that's brought my list of schools I got denied into up to 2.
And then the two schools I've been accepted to, one of which I don't want to go to at all, Adrian, and the other of which I probably shouldn't go to, LC.

So what is that? 7 schools total? Damn...no one else seems to have to look to this many schools. It's kinda pathetic.
