i'm in kingston and i was supposed to get a better look at queen's today because i got accepted but i ended up accepting my offer at u of t via iphone instead LOL HOW DOES THAT WORK

my mom doesn't care right now obv because she's too busy being mad at me

talk to her about alternate options and this is what i get

hahahha GOD of course it wouldn't be a day in the life of inggrid wibowo if it didn't have an angry mom in it

it IS my fault for being flaky as shit and completely non-committal towards the whole thing

idk what the fuck to study

i hate that the one thing i'm passionate about is non-marketable and completely unrealistic

who the fuck actually cares if you can make a pretty website

no stop this is not supposed to be a pity party skwoeonf FUCK okay get it together

regarding living apart from my parents, i think kim being my roommate was a big part of the whole thing, but now that she's not going to queen's all of that's up in the air. i doubt i can survive my first year alone or with a stranger roommate. i need someone i'm familiar with and i can trust to look out for me (i need someone to wake me up earlier than noon)

uottawa doesn't cut it for me. they've been super generous with me and their co-op program is something to seriously consider. i would go there if i was 100% sure i want to study politics but i'm not completely sold

i wanted queen's because it is prestigious the campus is gorgeous and kingston is cute and it's a mid-sized uni which is nice and they have a lot of student clubs which would make community involvement easy. but it is expensive and kingston is cute but bland as hell. also that residence thing

mcgill is like u of t but in montreal so what's the point

u of t is u of t it's terrifying it's a gpa killer WHY WOULD I GO TO THIS SCHOOL AAAAAAA

no okay reasons:

- i want to see if i can actually live up to its standards. if i can survive a year at utsg then i can survive anywhere else
- toronto is a great city. i don't explore it enough. even if i can't get involved in school related activities, there are tons of opportunities outside of school
- cheapest option by far (with the possible exception of uottawa bc of the giant scholarship they gave me)
- dad keeps reassuring me that this is a trial year. if i don't feel like i could do this for 3 more years, then i can transfer out
- prestiiiiige

i think i made the right decision. hooray self-therapy i guess. i'm gonna haul ass inside the hotel and start on a math unit now because i need to GRADUATE (!!!) and also it's cold outside of this dumb hotel

see you next year u of t

(wnoskwjq no i can't that sentence still freaks me out I'M GONNA BE A U OF T STUDENT UGH WHAT WHABER AHAT HOW DID THIS HAPPOPPPLPPPPPPEN)

Wow, when did everyone start writing on Livejournal during the break? Good friends list. Good. This is me figuratively petting you in congratulations, as if you were a kitten. A SEXY KIT--no. Nope. This just got weird.

Where have I been? At home, mostly. Eating, mostly. Buying things online because I have no sense of budget, mostly (to my credit, I had a 50% off coupon for one and the other was a badass, well thought-out purchase) (...says the shopping addict-to-be as she pats herself on the back with one hand and uses flame alchemy to burn the growing stack of receipts with the other). Neopets Advent Calendar, mostly. Tiny Tower, mostly. Watching Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Sherlock, mostly. This is all just a few activities I partake in with my best friend, The Internet. I had four concrete slots for Actual Socialization this break and two of them were cancelled, so that left Sheena's New Year's party (in which I got mildly drunk and had my second ever smoke, oops. Wish I could've talked to the host more, though) and the family New Year's party (which was the best by far!! I love my cousins).

Overall, the break's been dreadfully uneventful but I like uneventful. What I don't like is math seminars and math tests and university deadlines and applications. I've applied to every university on my list and was offered an early admission by uOttawa. I applied to Victoria College at UTSG and filled out their student profile. The only thing I've yet to do is the Queen's PSE. It's like drinking cold medicine: it's good for me, my parents want me to and I know I'll have to someday, but it tastes icky and right now I don't want to.

Instead, I'm going to do this lengthy meme and look back on it a year later! Should be interesting. And time-consuming.
