Accepted at Willamette!!!!!!!!!

I WAS ACCEPTED AT WILLAMETTE!!!!!!!!!! I haven't gotten my decision letter yet, so I just called up Willamette again to get the exact date that it was mailed (I wasn't sure if they said Friday 12/07 or Tuesday 12/11 last time I called), and they told me Tuesday.  Then I said, "Oh, okay.  And you're not allowed to tell me my admission decision, right?"  But the lady I was talking to said, "Well, we're not, but I could transfer you to an admissions counselor and they might be able to tell you."  Obviously I jumped at this chance, so I talked to an admissions counselor and by some total miracle I was ACCEPTED!!!!!!!!! ...

Watching an R-rated movie at 13.  (At 18 I've obviously watched numerous R-rated films.  This one was and still is the most disturbing movie I've ever watched.) 2. Continuing to go out with Ex-BF simply to irritate Rival because she had slept with him behind my back.  And then I ended up falling for Ex-BF...STUUUUUPID!!!!!!!!! 3. Riding my bike to the library at sunset, without telling anyone where I was going...

A Terrible Nagging

Lately, I've been very worried about my Willamette decision. Yeah, yeah, the date I'm supposed to get a decision is "on or before December 15."  Thing is, last year people on College Confidential started getting theirs on November 20.  SO WHY'S IT TAKING SO LONG!?!?!?!? On Friday I called the admissions office because I was so worried.  All they did was tell me (again) that I would get a decision "on or before December 15," and that they have so many applicants this year, and they apologize for the wait, and no the long wait does not mean I was rejected. I'm usually very optimistic about how everything will...
