| Well, it's time for an update...I don't really know what to say. A lot of big stuff has happened lately. One being that my car was hit on Wednesday...It has a big dent in the side of it because of a dumb girl in the GRCC parking ramp with a Mercury Grand Marquis who thought she could "squeeze it in" to the spot next to me...needless to say, it didn't work. No, I was not in the car, I didn't see it happen....but she was nice enough to leave a note with her number...but I have yet to get ahold of her so I can get my car repaired. It doesn't look bad from far away but it's actually a pretty bad gouge, all across the driver's side of the car. The other thing is what is seriously giving me problems. I got "the call" Wednesday night...I am getting a $24,000 scholarship to Western...out of about a thousand people, 45 were picked and I was one. I have to go to another interview where I have about a 50% chance along with the other 44 people to get a full ride. But if you count in my MEAP scholarship and my Cossin scholarship (yeah, got that one too), and the money I've been saving, and open house, I pretty much have a full ride already. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about this, I know it's awesome. But it sortof throws my priorities out of whack. Like, why have I been working two part-time jobs for a year? Why am I trying to get a transfer at Menards to Kzoo, because now I won't have to work through school (only summers)? Plus now I am locked into Western, no changing my mind, no transfering if I hate it, or if I get into Cornell (sniff). I mean, I'm pretty sure that I'll love it, but what if I don't?? I'm already going to practically be a spokesperson for WMU, a Medallion Board of Trustees Scholar, ack! They are already asking me to bring a senior picture to the interview so they can put me in brochures and stuff. I'm not really worried about the interview, interviews aren't that difficult for me. It's just the general idea. So I'm pretty sure I'm just in shock. This is what I was always supposed to do, and I actually did it, I think. I know, everyone's going to complain and say, why didnt you tell me? I just had to make sure I told myself first. |
