Haha. Yeah, you heard that right.
Harvard's minority undergrad admissions office called me to inquire as to whether or not I was applying to Harvard and help me with the application process. I feel soooo coool.

Good God, you're telling me?
It's going to cost about $500 just to apply to five of them. And most of the schools I want to go to are Ivy or equivalent so I won't be spending less than 35k a semester.

You lucky duck. SMU sent me an application (yay) but thats about it. I agree that applying is way to expensive. I sorta want to send a joke application to harvard just for funsies but the cost to apply will keep me from doing it.

Harvard sent me an App. Stanford sent me info. and told me to expect an App. UT's already saying I qualify for a scholarship if I get into their Engineering program.

I keep getting shitloads of mail from Rhodes which is all fine and dandy; but I don't wanna go out of state haha.
TCU, A&M, Houston & Rice sent me bunches of stuff and UNT sent me an application but I have no desire to attend it. [to close to home]. I'm currently deciding between SMU, A&M, & Rice; Rice being my favorite of course biggrin

This all girl's college has been sending me a lot of stuff. But yeah, we all know I'd die before going to an all girl's school.
This is probably my schools in order since my dad's limiting me to 5/6.
1. Standford 2. Berkley 3. MIT 4. Harvard 5. Rice 6. UT

I know what you mean. I'd die too. There is a catholic school in Austin that looks really cool, but I'm not catholic so that presents a smidge of a problem. Thus far my order is:
1.Rice 2. A&M 3. SMU 4. TCU
although if I don't get into Rice I'll probably go to SMU for a year then transfer. If I still don't get in then I'll probably go to A&M because aggies are awesome.
I keep getting mail from the coast guard academy too (sweetness) so if s omething happens to the current situation that prevents me from wanting to go out of state & such I'll probably definitely look into that.

There's only about one person in my class smarter than me. Maybe. But I'm planning to go to UNL because of the engineering classes and it's in state. My dad wants me to go to school of minds. "GO TO SCHOOL OF MINDS!" scream Hard descision, there's probably better schooling in School Of Minds and a baseball leauge I could make the cut for (I love baseball). But I want to feel like I'm doing something for Nebraska!

I'm thinking either Moorhead in MN or Northern in South Dakota.(which is the state I live in) I'm going into my senor year so I'm starting to get some things from different collages in the area. The people who really want me though are the Milatary branches. I have gotten calls from the National Guards, Air Force, and Marines if I remember right. I've also gotten letters from the Army. And the Marine recruitter who called me had arranged to meet at my house so he could talk me into joining the Marines but I want to be in the National Guards. According to my mom the reason they all want me is because of how high my ASVAB scores were and because I had checked a box on it the said I want to join the milatary. My mom likes to joke around by saying that next the FBI and CIA are gonna call me. eek

@Kemo: I love baseball with a passion. My parents always wanted me to play softball, but I was like "******** no, baseball"
I used to have a pitching arm, before I ruined it. Clocked at around 50 mph at the highest.
@Yaoi: Yeah, I'm heading for senior year too. I get at least 10 things of mail a day from all these different places. Been happening since sophmore year. XD I even got some express mail from oversees. And the applications are just rolling in now. I want to go into the Marines and stuff but physically all these armed forces won't take me because I'm flat-footed and anemic.
I've always wanted to be a sniper and do training for either the army of one of the government agencies.

I have a killer knuckle ball. Alot of ppl think they put the tips of their fingers on the ball, but the true way is to grip it with the fingers together and then slide them sideways. My knuckle ball has so much junk on it, it went into our catcher's glove, then bounced out and hit him in the balls.

@Ange: I once got three letter from the same college in a matter of two days.
@kemo: eek That poor catcher. He did he ever catch when you had to pitch after that.
I suck at sports. I had tried basketball but that didn't go too well. I'm mostly into acting things like Oral Interp at my school.
