Yay!

Very few things would be capable of topping today and yesterday.

Remember that financial problem with college that left me agitated, frustrated, and very unhappy? We-e-e-ell… WPI was kind enough to award me a scholarship for the entirety of the tuition. This just leaves me with room/board, books, and the other junk. I’m down to $6 800 a year, baby. Oh, yeah. My parents practically locked me in my room last night because I was running around alternately screaming and whispering “yay!”, dancing violently, and singing. I didn’t go to sleep until about 11:30 and practically no homework got done. My guidance counselor attributes this good fortune to God, while I want to hug the cool man that is the Assistant Director of WPI’s Financial Aid office. Oh, well. Yay!

To top that off, I did in fact get accepted into Carleton, although they didn’t give me as much money as I would have liked for them to be a competitor against WPI. I’m okay with that though. Yay!

Needless to say, I am now slightly obsessed with WPI. Or “Whoopi”, as Michael calls it. That’s okay though. I didn’t have a life, anyway. Yay!

My mother and I are planning on spending about a week in Worcester during Spring Break (middle of April). The only downside is that the Rat must go with us.

Oh, and that Linkin’ Park CD? It does indeed grow on you. The rap-rock-ish style has fit my mood very well lately.
