Well I didn't get into UCLA. Its all good though. I'm not stressing about it at all. When i first read it i was kind of sad about it but a couple people IMed me and told me they didn't get in either so i kinda realized that a lot of people didn't get in, and so its all good. Its a little disappointing because its put an end to the latest prophecy that i had been believing in. My teacher Mr. Van Grove always tells us about how he met his wife while attending UCLA. He talked about how he was kind of a slacker until he met his wife and when he met her she changed him. And in like other talks we've had hes told me how my life has reminded him of his own. So, i started to believe that maybe, I would go to UCLA and meet my wife. But i guess thats not going to happen now. To be honest, that was probably one of the bigger reasons that it was my top choice, the other being that its the best UC in southern CA, but i dont even really care...my success or failure is on me. So, i guess things just don't go the way u plan, which isn't a bad thing at all. Life throws u some curves but they can turn out really well.

Committed a RAR today...

I decided to start a new tradition at MMHS, UCLA Rejection Rejection Day...i wore my UCLA rejection letter proudly on my chest the whole day. I wanted everyone who got rejected from UCLA to print theirs out and wear it. I just thought it'd be cool and even helpful for all the honors kids who worked their ass off for 4 years so that they could go to UCLA to see, just like i did, that they weren't the only ones who got rejected. Unfortunately, i was not able to spread the word quickly enough, but some people thought it was a good idea. Maybe we will do it at the end of the month or something... Also i wanted to take a picture of a bunch of people with their letters flicking off the camera. I wanted to submit it to the Museum of Contemporary art as a statement about the stress and anguish teens experience these days from the difficulty of trying to get accepted into college. My favorite part --using my Honor Roll pin to attach my letter to my shirt. Irony kicks ass...
