College Woes

So, I have applied to Emory Early Decision and YHC regular decision. Anyway, I went to YHC yesterday and got my acceptance letter that contained the details of a very nice looking financial aid package that doesn't even include other scholarships and stuff I will get. More surprisingly, I really loved the campus and the class I got to sit in on. PLUS, my friends are going to YHC and we would be able to stay in the same suite together with some other random people. But no. It's too late to defer my Early Decision Application to Regular Decision. I will know whether or not I'm accepted by February 1st. So, pray, or do whatever it is your religion does, that I get a defferal the good ol' fashion way, by not meeting their standards. I know, that's weird, but hey, I want to have FUN in college too. Even if I did end up deciding to go to Emory, I want to have that choice, not be locked into it. I claim that I was under duress to make a decision about the rest of my life; locking myself into a college plan seemed like a good way to get rid of that. BAH! Indecision, but not really. I think I know what I want to do now, even if I don't know the career I want to have FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. This is an awful lot to expect someone to decide. I mean, they want me to choose the path of my life for a portion of time greater than I've seen until this point. I could actually see myself living at Young Harris, though, and there they don't force you into something. Instead, they make sure you have a smattering of everything so you can decide from experience what you want to major in.
Well, that's the end of that rant for today, kids.
On a lighter note, I'm writing a fanfiction and it's getting tons of awesome reviews. Plus, that financial aid deal with YHC was pretty awesome and unbelievable when I first saw the numbers on the paper. I'm gonna go see about the music scholarship for YHC. Later.

P.S. Oh, and I updated just for you Kriegie. I demand you tell me what to do with the rest of my life. JK. Some advice would be great in this instance, though.

as i said before, you shouldn't worry overmuch about these things, okay? i mean, whatever you decide, or whatever happens, i'm sure you'll be fine. after all, you are quite the resilient person and you are quite capable of becoming friends with others...so don't worry about being alone if you're at emory...and i'll try my hardest to e-mail you all the time, especially if you've been lax with your fanfic ^_^...well, anyway, it'll be okay!

No worries! Lots of people had to miss it. The whole thing is up on YouTube if you get bored and feel like seeing what you missed, though. Haha.
