Today I went to the highschool, got my official transcripts in a sealed envolope, and drove two and a half hours to Summerdale, where Central Penn is, worrying the whole time that I missed exits I wasn't supposed to. Lol, everyone is right, I really do worry entirely tooooo much =P
I got to Central Penn in one peice, and after a bit, I got a tour of the campus. I have to say, I am very glad I went. Going to the college gave me a lot of hope about a lot of things. Actually, talking to Sarah, Azure, and Preston did too, and I honest to goodness feel a lot better than I have for a long while. I am very worried about MiaMia though =\
Touring the college was kind of fun, really. I think the soonest I can know if I am accepted is about a week and a half, because next Friday, there is going to be some kind of council meeting, to decide who is getting accepted and stuff...*crosses fingers*
If I do get accepted, the earliest I can move on campus is August 20, I think. I believe that is a Sunday. That is not bad, considering that in about a month, I will be going to Egypt for three weeks (My first vacation =O, senior trip not counting <_<;;)
Actually, I am kind of nervouse about that....I am going with my uncle's wife and kids (They invited me, it is paid for and stuff), the rest of my immediate family is staying here, home, USA. My mom verbally says it is ok, but everytime on the news, there is something about bombings and whatever, she will gesture and say "Aleia, I wouldn't go now if I were you." -_-
I am still going, anyways. Whatever happends to me is meant to happen, you know? Even hiding under your bed, you can get hurt. (Dust Bunnies, especially ones from under the bed are notoriouse to attack innocent under-the-bed crawlers, and are well known to at least nibble toes =O!!!)
I work the snack counter at the Fort Littleton rest stop at the PA Turnpike. The rest stop is owned by HMS Host, and traveling on the Turnpike, I realized all the other stops (at least the ones that I went to) are owned by the same company. And....I made a wonderful discovery. My employee discount applies to all the other rest stops, not just the one that I work at. Hey, 30% off the end total price is nice for a hopefully soon to be college girl, no? ^_~
I leave you with a tip to remember: Never, EVER buy chocolate pocky on a hot day, and take it outside. They are the opposite of the M&M motto
(Melts in your mouth, not in your hands!)....X_+
