Oi. I'm sick, again. This is the second day I've gone home from school early in a row. I feel bad about that because the classes I really need to attend are in the afternoon (Physics and Algebra II), but I wouldn't be of any use in them in this state. Tomorrow is senior skip day, so I'll have some time to regenerate, thank God.
It's funny. This time last year I was sick, too. See here and here.
Graduation is nine days away. My speech is finished. If I had stayed this afternoon, I would have tried on the cap and gown. It's scary.
I have no idea where I'm going to be in three months time. I am enrolled in Butler for next year, but I'm wait listed at Kenyon and Vassar. Also, since this will only be my third year in high school, I have the option of attending another year someplace with more course options. My school offered me a job. I could supervise students at some kind of transitional program they're setting up for kids leaving high school and going into college. The downside is I'd be in the same program taking AP correspondence courses, and that doesn't appeal to me right now. Things are up in the air.
And it appears they're going to stay that way for a little while longer. Kenyon says they have a "higher yield" than they expected, meaning there will be fewer spots for people on the wait list, and they won't be filling spots until mid-June. The lady who interviewed me at Kenyon really seems to like me, so at least I have that comfort. Vassar said that some of their decisions are mailed out as late as July, which is ridiculous. If I find out in July that I have to move 761.32 miles away--according to MapQuest--in a month, I'd freak out. In the meantime, I prepare for a year at Butler. In fact, I choose my classes and take my placement tests this Friday.
Now, I sleep.
