College... (dun dun dunnn)

I'm a bit frightened, and totally psyched at the same time! I've been looking at schools all across the country that have good architecture programs as well as others just in case I decide to change my major (hopefully I won't!). I found this really nice school that has awesome Architecture programs as well as tons of art, math and science courses- which is great! And the snag: its the University of Washington State. Far away, yes, but also the home of Starbucks! and only 2 hours from the coast, and an hour from Port Angeles, and located right in Seattle. This is (at this particular moment) my dream college. :D! Yay!
Theres also another great school in Southern California (the Los Angeles area ;) ) and theres a few worth looking into closer to home, but still near the coast, in the Carolinas. I have an idea of where I would like to go to college- somewhere near water, and tons of trees and wildlife. Add in another plus for Washington- it has tons of parks, trails and outdoor activities to keep me active, while not feeling stuck in a small town. :P (No offense to HF-L or Lima, I just feel kind of smothered by small town-ness) Another plus for Washington State: College in the city, but a weekend getaway on the coast where there are no tall buildings or main roads!
-I think I'm getting obsessed...-

Ohmigosh! So today in Civil Engineering & Architecture, Mr. DeCarlo had pulled out all these old blueprints from as early as the 70's. Haha :P But it was totally cool! I found blueprints for the school from 1995, and a plan for this huge house on Rush Mendon Road (The Meisenzahl [sp?] Residence) and it was SICK. I really wish we did that kind of drawing- all by hand- in class instead of on the computer where I don't know how to do anything, I haven't really "made" anything because I don't know how to render my projects. It sucks being dumb in this area. So anyways, I sent a bunch of pictures to mom on my phone :P haha. Oh, that reminds me- I gotta find some money for dinner tonight.... :/ eek! Eh, oh well. Skiing should be fun tonight. It's sunny outside right now and the skies are kind of clear, so hopefully it won't be too cold! :)

Uncle Jim's hat won't fit my head. :P It's as tight as it will go too! Haha, man I thought my head was bigger...
Today's song is: My Life Would Suck Without You- Kelly Clarkson
I love it- its so fun and upbeat and it makes me want to just stop what I'm doing, turn up my music, and DANCE. Ah, I love music like this. I think you might want to go listen now :)
