i'm afraid.

uci is prettier. But can I really base my whole college decision on what school is prettiest? Well, I am going to be living there for 4 years, I don't want to be looking at dead grass those years. But that's not why I'm going to college. The academics are better at UCSD and I would be missing out on opportunities if I didn't go there, as Prema likes to remind me every time I see her. College should be about more than just the way it looks. BTW I lied. I'm just afraid of being alone.

"what are we going to tell people the reason is that you're dorming at UCI? if you want to dorm so bad, might as well go to UCSD"


I like the anteater. I like the buildings. I like the food. I like the atmosphere.

I think I'm going to UCSD.




This year is definitely not what we all expected.

SIR

Less than 2 months. And then it's all over.

Cinderella

I don't need you to find my glass slipper. I've been running perfectly fine without it.

we are speech and debate.

It's interesting watching salt water drops spread through my bed sheets. They start off in small spheres that fall and splash off little spheres around them as soon as they make contact. It looks as if they are moving; making room for themselves because they were just so concentrated in the confines of the drop. And them hitting the sheets frees them and their influence.

oh chariot, give me your strength.

you think i have problems
because that's what i do now
my stomach hurts
but i've gotten so used to being quiet
that i don't have any problems
it doesn't hurt
so quiet
to slow down as so it comes to a stop
it tingles
so i don't like to talk about it
i can't even if i wanted to
and twitches and jerks


i might not need to break this glass.
