Oh hey nutang. meh.

So if I go to Western I have to make my decision real quick. Western, however is not where I want to go...it's where I can afford to go. I want to go to Columbia College Chicago so bad and after having visited it, I know I would fit so perfectly there..but it's so expensive and that scares me. I just wish scholarships weren't so hard to find. I understand that I'm white, I'm probably palest of the pale but that's beside the point, and that most scholarships have restrictions based on race and such. But honestly? I've been raised by a single mother who works at a job that doesn't pay near enough nor treat her right but she works there for me and my brother, for our benefit. She's tried time and time again to get a different job but for most if she were to transfer she'd be starting at an even lower salary than she has now. So what the fuck am I supposed to do? I can't change the color of my skin but I am in need just as much or moreso of scholarships that are restricted to African Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanics etc. I don't know, I'm ranting but asd;lfkj. Yep, that sums it up.

I've officially decided that 8th grade was my favorite year in my educational career so to speak. It was so chill and just plain fun. I miss how simple it all was and all the good times in Victor's class. Plus, it was the first year of RRK, a great thing indeed.

I got my tonsils taken out over Spring Break. The ideal age for that is 7. Yeah, I've got 11 years on that. Anyway I had 3 terrible bouts with Strep Throat within a matter of 5 months..and the doctor basically told me in simplest terms that my mouth was fucked up. All I can say is, I'm happy they're out but recovery is hell and completely disgusting. I threw up 3 times..throwing up, having shit come out of your mouth the opposite direction of how it's supposed to come in when you're not even allowed to eat solids yet your throat is so fucked, is the worst thing on the planet. Well, maybe the scabbing trumps that. Mmm Graphic.

G'night.

Yay! You came back! I think it's about time to file fafsas or whatever it is, if you haven't done that, it might help.

I hated 8th grade, it was nearly useless. :( Did you get to eat ice cream for your tonsilectomy?

Maybe it was cool... being ice cream and all, just not as enjoyable the second time. :P

Good luck with your fafsa, they more or less told me that my parents made too much money. :(
