Things I Like

The other night whilst tidying the living room I was listening to Vitamin C's "Graduation" [from a mix CD that was the invitation to Patty Greenfield's sixteenth birthday party], and it made me really sad. Damn music & its emotional manipulation. But then "Maneater" came on & I forgot about being sad. Don't worry.

Also I tolly saw this girl who gets changed in my gym locker row on Wheel of Fortune. It was really weird, especially because I never watch Wheel of Fortune. But there she was on the teevee with her little best friend and they won like $20,000 and a shopping spree and it made me almost kill myself.

My Harvard interview was this morning. It went really well. I printed out a list of all my activities/awards/etc. that my guidance counselor had me make and brought it with me, so the interviewer just went through the list & we talked about each one. I was really comfortable with her & she was really impressed by all the stuff I do. And then when she asked me about my SAT scores, she was like, "That's astounding."

I enjoyed it more than my MIT interview, I think. Maybe because I was less nervous/liked her better? I also didn't bring the resumé with me to the MIT interview, so they asked me stupid questions to which I couldn't think of fantastic answers on the spot. But whatevz, I got in, so it doesn't matter.

I did notice that I was saying 'like' a lot, so I thought of you. & I tried not to say it as much, but it was difficult. And she was probably too busy paying attention to the content of what I was saying to notice. One hopes.

Not that I particularly want to go to Harvard, anyway, but they have my application fee already, so I figure I might as well make an effort.

PS: Supersize Me is so good & bad at the same time. Chicken nuggets are prolly the nastiest thing evar. But surprisingly, what really grossed me out [besides the gastric bypass surgery] was the soda. Drinking those huge cups of coke everyday is just not appetizing to me at all. Yay for flavoured corn syrup. Mmm.
