ooh, a week's passed before I even realised it's gone.
What have I been busy with?
Fancy and glossy prospectuses from US colleges are beginning to arrive in the mail, and suddenly I am once again feeling overwhelmed with desire to get accepted.
Yes I am applying to the US (might have mentioned that somewhere before), but that's still a pretty long way from now.
The deadline's a good half a year away, but I already have the sinking feeling that i will as usual 'unwittingly' push everything to the last couple of weeks in a frantic rush of SAT scores and teacher recommendations and admission essays.
Because right now I am so overloaded with...leisurely job-seeking (some clicks here and there on the net), and picking my dream college.
Almost a life-and-death deal, I know.
Job-seeking wise, I am still waiting for the pot of gold to land on my lap; college-picking wise, I have some favourites already -
The Great Books Program is offered in many colleges, a liberal education with no exams no grades, but the catch is their mother of a reading list (Ptolemy, Tolstoy, Nietzsche). If I ever graduate from that,
brushing my teeth will probably end up being
expunging grime for the restoration of my teeth's purity.
Painful, I know. (or,
it's a grave affliction, I am aware.)
