I hate the future

I stayed home from school because I'm sick... with allergies :3

But really, my mom gave me permission so that I could apply to colleges properly.

Colleges.... ah. (: What a hurtful joke. The other day I applied to University ** for the first time. Yesterday I got a letter in the mail saying that I "didn't meet the standards" which isn't possible for two reasons. One, because I haven't sent them my SAT scores. Two, I have the required GPA to get in with an 1180 on my SAT... and since I haven't sent out my SAT score, they don't know if I have the minimum required SAT score to get in. What is worse is that the letter isn't a flat out rejection. I was just told that I should go on a "deference program" which means that I should go to another college and THEN apply to University **. Thanks but no thanks. I would rather jump off a bridge while on fire than apply to your University again.

So today I am sitting in front of my computer trying to think of an essay to write for my other 10 college choices. I've been doing this for the past 7 hours.... I need to write something inspiring for the following uninspiring prompt:

Write an essay in which you tell us about someone who has made an impact on your life and explain how and why this person is important to you.

What I don't get is how writing about someone important to me will get me into college. My major of choice requires no writing of essays and if they did, it wouldn't be a big part of it.

In other news, I'm taking the SAT again tomorrow and I have to write yet another uninspired essay so that maybe some old, bitter, wrinkly, know-it-all man can give me a 2. (:

If you haven't applied to college yet, don't even bother. It is all a big scam. You pay a big load of money so that MAYBE you can be successful in life. They're pretty much elitist, out-of-tune people with nothing better to do than to LOOK for things to give you a big, fat, REJECTED with.

Love, Kenni<3
