There is a very good chance school will be closed tomorrow, ice storm, you see. We could get up to half an inch of ice, which would be bad. Oddly enough, the ice is supposed to stop very soon after three (which is when we get out of school).

I'm getting very excited for college. All of my applications are in, even if I think my transcript for UDel got lost in the mail because they still don't have it and it's been over a month since I handed in the forms at my school. In any case, I'm done until FAFSA and all that financial aid crap. Honestly, how insane are college prices now? Plus, how much does it suck that your aid package goes down every year even though tuition goes up?

As if I didn't need another thing to worry about, I hear RPI is giving provisional admissions to some people, saying they need a college-level Calculus and Chemistry class and making them enter in Spring, even though they took AP Calc and AP Chem. How does that make any kind of sense? On the website it says you only need through Pre-Calc and it mentions nothing about having to take any college level courses. WTF, RPI?

The more I learn about college admissions, the more I think it's completely arbitrary.

I swear, college is going to kill me before I even get there.
