the college post.

this is where i write to tell you all about the beginnings of my college search. i'll preface by saying that i have been set on going to OBU for about 3 years now... kay. so yesterday my best friend's mom was over, and we were all talking about colleges. so she and my mom came up with a list of colleges i could consider. that list is: Stanford, Rhodes, Vanderbilt, NYU, Pepperdine, Wash U, SMU, Princeton, Hendrix... plus a couple more. they decided that they wanted me to aim higher than OBU. which is understandable. i am fully capable of going to any of these schools. it's just a HUGE wake-up call, because i haven't ever actually thought of having to look at colleges a whole lot before now. it's also a wake up call for my attitude towards high school. i take AP classes, and i have at least a 4.0 but i really don't try my best. i just kind of do what i can to get by. i'm gonna have to step it up. haha. but for real. ummm there was something else i was going to say. oh yeahhh. if you noticed, besides Hendrix, the closest any of these schools are to LR is 2 hours. and quite a few of them would be over a 24 hour drive away. that's far. the thing is, being far from here doesn't seem to bother me. i would think it would... but it's exciting. going into something completely new would be so exhilerating to me. i'm ready for adventures. we are planning trips to visit.

let's do this.

jonas.

i got a really cute new button down yesterday. it's light blue and the cuffs/collar are white. i wore it today with a maroon cardigan and rolled up khakis and white vans. when i came downstairs my mom said "you look like a jonas today." i laughed. then realized she was completely serious.

but actually it was really funny. and i definitely told everyone that. because i was basically proud of that fact.

and i did look really cute. just saying.


that is my life right now. i'm so proud.

limits.

i just sat here and did my homework for AP Calculus AB. (before proceeding to do AP US History and AP Lit homework). do you know how ridiculous this class is? very. i mean, i love math and all, but DANG. well anyway, i did my homework, which is over limits. (and of course every time i have to write "the limit does not exist" i think of mean girls. thank you lindsay lohan). anywho, uhh i wish i could say that my homework inspired some deep, thought-provoking idea. but alas, it did not. i just got really frustrated because i could figure out the answer, i just didn't know how i got it. this happens to me a lot... hmm. but yeah, i just thought i would let you know what's going on. nothing too much deeper than limits, the discovery of the New World, and MLA format. thank you and goodnight.

oh yeah, song for this post is: You Be the Anchor That Keeps My Feet on the Ground, I'll Be the Wings That Keep Your Heart in the Clouds by Mayday Parade
