"I am one lazy b-word."

-IJ

What's been going on? I mean, it's a whole-nother year. I'll be graduating in a couple months, off to college in a couple more. I've been through a lot more craziness. Perhaps TOO much to explain. I don't think that I could justly summarize all that has happened in one post, so I won't.

I will say, however, that I am happy with where I am today. I wanna keep finding myself, though, because I'm still unsure as to where I "should" be.

Right now, my life consists of school, school, school, collegestuff, and a thin slice of "other". I spend so much time in school... it's almost scary. It is pretty gay, I will admit. I love what I do, most of the time. Other times, I wish I had the audacity to take the easy route, like most seniors. Yea, I'm trying to balance 4 AP courses, Senior Mentoring, Student Body President, Yearbook editing, Varsity Basketball, Board of Education, and the 23452 other extra-curricular activities. I always feel like I sound like the most ANNOYING b-word in the world when I type/say all that. Most people with my type of schedule would try to "brag" about it, like it matters. That's lame to me, and I wouldn't even do that... ever. I just do what everyone else won't, and that's accept responsibilty and take student leadership.

Okay, so taking the easy route was never an option for me. I know that God put me here to do exactly what I'm doing now, if not more. So let's just make that clear...

I should be doing a lot of things right now. For instance, 3 days worth of homework. It snowed like crazy alllllllllll week. Most snow ever in the Philly metro, I think? So, thankfully, we're in the middle of "the SIX DAY WEEKEND 2010". Crazy, huh? Well, yea. I didn't even touch my homework... like every few hours, I'll stop facebooking (aka bullshitting), stare at my bookbag like o.o ... and I turn my head. ^_^

College applications are essentially finished, lol. I'll run down 'da list:

• Rutgers Univerity in New Brunswick:
• Admitted to Arts&Sciences, Engineering. NOT Admitted to Pharmacy.
• - This was my number one choice. Pharmacy is my major, in case you ain't know. And so getting this news sucked booty, but I got over it. There's more, you know?
  
• Temple University in Philadelphia:
  Admitted. Pre-Pharmacy,
• - Temple is kind of a backup for me. I've never really considered, only because it's too close, for me. I wouldn't know whether to stay at home and commute (which is NOT an option for me), or pay thousands to stay on campus... which is about 20 minutes away from home. You do the math.
  
• Duquesne University in Pittsburgh:
• Admitted. 2+4 Pharm.D program!
• - So Duquesne was definitely up there on my list, but it has slowly became my number one choice. It's far, but not too far. It's a nice school. It has my program, and I've been accepted. Oh, and they're offering a decent amount of scholarship $$$! So right now, I'm leaning toward Duquesne! I'm excited, too. I am supposed to be visiting Feb. 21st. Oh, and I hear Pittsburgh is nice, and we shall see.
  
• St. John's University in Queens, NY:
  Admitted. NOT Admitted to Pharmacy Program.
• - So STJ did me dirty, lol. They offered me this Priority Application, and I did it! It said all this crap about "decision in 2 weeks" and 2 weeks in NY probably means 4 months... because that's how long it took them... lol. Anyway, I didn't submit an essay or anything because this priority app... I probably should have, though. Whatever, anyway I got in, just not for my program. Scratched off the list.
  
• Stockton College in Pomona, NJ:
• Admitted, Not for 3+4 Pharmacy Program.
• - Whatevs, never wanted to go to Stockton. Just applied. Scratched off.
  
• Northeastern University in Boston:
• Waiting to hear back!
  - I'd love to go hereeee, ughhh. Cross your fingers!
  
• Hampton University in Virginia:
• Waiting to hear back!
  - Another back up, HBCU. Depends on how much they're offering. They have a Pharm program, so we shall see.
  
• Florida A&M University in Tallahassee, FL:
  Waiting to hear back!
• - I already know that I qualify for a nice little scholarship jawn, soo I'm just waiting.
  
• University of the Sciences in Philadelphia:
• Waiting to hear back!
• - I'm starting to get nervous. They're taking 123421 years... but they have a nice 6-year Pharmacy program. I've visited over the summer. It's small & close. Maybe a little too small & close for me, but idk.
  
• Montclair State University in NJ:
• Waiting to hear back!
• - I'm supposed to be doing EOF for them, butttt I think I'll switch to normal student status. I don't wanna do a summer program thing, to be honest. But, hey. The money be there, sooo.. lol.

This college crap is exhausting as you can tell. I'm just ready to be there already. Sucks that I couldn't apply to anything in DC. I loved it there. Howard has an 8-year Pharmacy program, though. and I'm tryna be in and OUT of college. okay?! Anyway, I'm done with this post. I'm annoyed. lmaoo.. this college shit gets on my nervessssssssss.
