astrophysics, bloody hell. I applaud you and your intelligence. I'm not nearly half as smart as that. For the time being I'm think a Communication degree. I'm not entirely sure what I want to do, I kind of want to do it all. Ultimately I'd love to have some sort of charity or do philanthropic work, like with UNICEF. I really want to help others, who can't help themselves, especially women in developing countries, who feel worthless in or like they're a burden because they're a woman.

Brilliant. I'm an extremely selfish person. I accept it, though, and that's why I'm so amazed when people are so willing to give to and help others because I know it's something I'd never do.

What are you planning on studying? English?

Once upon a time I wanted to be an English major. Now I really want to be an astrophysicist or engineer or something scientific. My dream would be to search for exo-planets and aliens all day long but that's really unrealistic so I'm looking into some being a professor for quantum physics or astronomy. I'm still playing around with ideas, though. What are you gonna go to school for?

A&M is expensive, but it seems like a really nice school. My one friend is trying to get into their nursing program, but she'd number 12 in our class, so she shouldn't have much trouble.

Oh yeah, she definitely won't. They accept top ten percent no questions asked. But you still want to make good grades are your SAT and ACT and apply for all sorts of scholarships. It's one thing to get in, it's another to actually pay for it. ug

& I'm finding it increasingly difficult to find scholarships, because I'm not in the top 10 % of my class, or of Hispanic heritage. The school that I'm planning on going to university isn't ridiculously expensive, but I really want to study abroad and I'm one of five kids, in a lower middle class house hold, so I don't exactly have money to blow.

I totally understand. I'm lucky enough to be in the top of my class, so I'm holding on that I can get some good scholarships, especially if I go to A&M which can get pretty expensive. But I definitely can't just spend money on whatever.

I know what you mean, ugh, college prep is killer. Plus, I want to get a head start on my portfolio, and I can't do that if I haven't got the Adobe Sweep, first world problems. TRUST ME, start college stuff now, because I'm currently losing my mind.

Hahaahahha first world problems. But seriously. And that's what I'm trying to tell my mom; that we should start saving up and looking for financial aid stuff now because she's always freaking out about paying for my college but shes not doing anything about it so were just going to be in worst shape when that time comes around. I know it'll still be killer when the time comes but if I already have my computer and some money put aside, then that saves us thousands of dollars in two years and wont be as crippling.

:c I'm sorry. I really want one to for college next year, but the price of the computer and all the software I'm going to need is going to cost a small fortune. Apple is going to take over the world.

It really is. And that's one of the main reasons I want it: for college. I know I still have a year but that's part of the reason I want to get a super good computer now, so it will last me through college but I won't have to buy it along with all my other college funds I'll be scraping out in 2014. But for real, Apple is the company of companies.
