My life + 1

So I've been neglecting everything (what else is new?) mainly because of the boyfriend. He's on break so he picks me up after school and we hang out from 2:30 - 5:30 and I go home, eat dinner, try to do my homework but make a pathetic effort, and then go to sleep.
Umm... school is school, it's so strange to read all your blogs on college and meeting new room-mates and stuff while I'm still in this familiar environment that I'm so comfortable with. I guess my "easing-in" was to America :p

Miss everyone and NZ so much, even though everything here is great.
I'm gonna be able to make my decisions about college by april 2nd I think (that's when I hear back from the last college - Stanford), but my mind is already set on Otago... so I'm hoping they'll let me take two semesters of classes in one.
America is great and all, and I know I'd get some shit from people if I went back because they think I can't make it in the states. But the truth of the matter is, I feel like my world perception is getting warped and too US-centric, I'm terrified of becoming like these people with their little social groups and closed-mindedness. Perhaps it's just where I am right now and college will be better, who knows?

The only colleges I'd stay in the states for is Brown Uni, Stanford, or the UConn combined medical program (get a MD in 6 years instead of 4 undergrad + 4 grad). Fingers crossed guys.

I feel sort of stressed right now and have no real justification for that.
<3 you all
