23 August

Ohhhh why am I sick the day before musical auditions! And whhyyy, world, do i have a dislocated knee? Pourquoi ca! (I say that so much that my computer should really have a cedille key...) I am a small bit freaking out. A small bit.

I am almost done with my applications for: Belmont, Furman, UNC Chapel Hill, Auburn, Covenant, Lee. Which is really all but Samford and UTK. Since so many of these apps are free anyway, and I'm pretty quick on my feet at the whole essay-writing thing, I'm thinking about doing a couple stretch-schools as well. (Although with my tightwad parents who think that as an English graduate I'm going to be bankrupt within a year, all of the above might be stretch-schools.) I'm thinking UVA or Michigan.... maybe? But Michigan is so cold! and UVA is so expensive!

My parents keep and keep and keep harping me on college applications and studying for the ACT. This is why I cannot stand to be home in the afternoons, and why I wish to get the whole shebang over with as quickly and painlessly as I can.... Now they've fixated themselves on me going to Lee, since it's close, but quite frankly I want to get rather far away from my family. We'll see how that turns out.... as for me, I shan't worry over it any longer.

Instead I shall worry about musical auditions. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.

(Or perhaps I shall simply take my coffee outside and enjoy the weather! Less stressful, less productive....)
