So in the past week I've recieved financal aid packages from University of New England, Quinnipiac University, and Worecester State. All of them have decided to allow us to apply for a loan totalling in $1,300 a year.
WHAT THE HELL!
I mean my parents make good money but my brother is in college too. Sometimes I wish we were poor so I could go to college for free.
With all of this I really feel obligated to go to UNE next year because of the scholarship. Ughh. My parents said that I can go to any college I want but I just feel bad. All my mom has been saying is "We're going to be so poor next year."
...Yeah I dont know.

Washington DC is tomorrow and I cannot wait. I love George Bush and politics and all of that fun stuff so this should be good.
I just hope the weather isn't too bad.

Any plans for this week?

On Wednesday at work I randomly saw Brian Rosado. I was wicked pumped about that. I <3 seeing him randomly once a year. He's going to be working at the Y when he's on Christmas break!
Thanksgiving was good. Went to the football game. It started pouring. I got soaked. We won.
Then I sat around all day, chilled with my family, ate turkey and pie.
Yesterday I did window painting with Kayte. Our window came out awesome, as usual. After that I hung out with Megan, Meghan, and Becca. Some sketchy boys came over. They kicked our asses in basketball. I sucked.
Today I am hanging out with Ryan and Katie. I'm wicked pumped about that. I <3 them. Too bad we can't turn this into a reunion and get everyone from the trip together. I'm not sure what we're doing... maybe ice skating? Then Katie is sleeping over my house. We're going to have a slumber party.
I have a wicked lot of homework and my room is a mess. Ugh
The End.
PS. Keep an eye out for embarrassing pictures of MEGAN CIAVARRA.
PSS. THIS IS WAR.

So I am going to the Presidential Inauguration in January. I am wicked psyched about that but I'm flying down by myself and I'm a little nervous about that. I've never been to D.C. before so that should be pretty cool too. And the Inaugural Ball! I'm wearing my prom dress to it!
I'm so glad next week is only 2 and 1/2 days of school. Then Thanksgiving. I'm not sure what we're doing yet. My cousins might be coming over.
All of my college stuff is done. Now I'm just waiting. I should hear back from UNE and Quinnipiac around Christmas.
THe end

Today I voted.
It was pretty exciting.
I also volunteered with the election stuff.
There were a lot of first time voters.
Kudos to them.
And me.
Billy didn't vote.
I am disappointed in him.
If W. doesn't win it's all his fault.
i <3 w.

~Green Face Masks
~Dunkin Donuts drive though at 10:30 with green face masks

Hmm... Ya know what sucks? When your so called best friend turns into a wicked bitch and you are no longer best friends, or really even friends at all.
Ya know what else sucks? When your brother gets tickets to the Sox and doesn't invite you to go with him.
Also, college essays suck.
And so doesn't AP Bio.
