<p>Maybe March Madness will take my mind off NCSSM… Haha, NOT. </p>
<p>@Snoutmol Naturally, there’s like 60 people applying from my school itself. I’m just trying to focus on school and stay optimistic :)</p>
<p>@arnavg544 we just kind of watched the game during Calc instead of actually doing things. And lol, i was surprised by that too</p>
<p>@songbird13 Looking for Alaska </3</p>
<p>1,206,326 seconds left :)</p>
<p>@snoutmol I was feeling kinda confident at first but now that it is so close, I’m not sure of my self. These past few weeks have flown by. I’m just hoping and praying that I’ll get in. (as is everyone else)</p>
<p>Self-doubt is inevitable. As is oblivion. (Tips fedora at John Green) April 3rd approaches as we speak. What will happen will happen. I’m not worrying too much about it. There’s not much I can do now. Don’t worry. Be happy. 13 days already. We curse through sludge as we trudge to our destination.</p>
<p>It’s the first day of my favorite season. Spring has sprung. Spring has come. I look outside and I see robins and squirrels and daffodils. I look at the weather and it says there might be a freaking blizzard next week. 11 more days until the end of March, and then it will be April Fool’s Day, and then two more days, and it will be April 3rd. I wish it was April 3rd. I feel tired. That is all.</p>
<p>@WhiteRabbit98 Your poetic writing sounds like John Green. I’m getting really anxious but I’m trying to be happy and not worry about it. I’m also trying to have the time of my life with my family and friends, because I know if I get in, that I’m going to miss them. Alas, I know that happiness can be found in the darkest of times…
13 days. 21 hours. 52 minutes. </p>
<p>…if one only remembers to turn on the light. xD</p>
<p>you guys are wonderful</p>
<p>(Politely tells math homework) I do not wish to solve for x. Please go away. I banish you from my kingdom.</p>
<p>@willsister1 Family is forever. Made by love, not by blood. You will make new family at NCSSM. Your family at home will never forget you, and will always be there to welcome you home on extended weekends. And they’re only a phone call away. Though I know that’s far from seeing them. Woah. I just got sentimental.</p>
<p>@supremenoodle I think you’re wonderful. (Raises eyebrow)</p>
<p>@IceeSky
The bark of the Elder makes whistles for children
To call to the deer as they rove over the snow;
“I am born in the dark”, says the Green Man,
“I am born in the dark”, says he.</p>
<p>Where did that come from? I dunno. I want to turn on the light, but what if I’m a vampire? #deep #sodeep</p>
<p>@WhiteRabbit @IceeSky was finishing my Harry Potter reference. 
@supremenoodle Awww shucks. You are wonderful, too. :D/ </p>
<p>Harry Potter(: On a completely different note, are any of you going to go see Divergent this weekend? (actually, I guess it’s sort of a similar note since they’re both YA novels)</p>
<p>@IceeSky I was going to see it Saturday, but I don’t get paid until Tuesday and I have to go to a volleyball tournament. I think I’m going next weekend. I really want to read Divergent, I just haven’t had the time. I’m doing a paper in English class that requires we read 3 books for the one paper. We read The Handmaid’s Tale as a class, then we had to choose a fiction and nonfiction book from her list to read on the side. All for a little 3 page paper. Urgh. </p>
<p>@Snoutmol I doubt my chances of NCSSM every second of every day</p>
<p>@willsister1 You should read the series, it’s pretty good(: That sucks about your English paper… we just wrote research papers in my English class, but they don’t sound nearly as bad as what you had to do. My problem is I always write too much. Then when I delete stuff to make it fit the page requirements I get told that “I don’t have enough commentary”! But they told me I had to shorten it! Oh, the logic of high school English classes.</p>
<p>@supremenoodle You’re awesome. Marry me <3</p>
<p>@WhiteRabbit98 Your words are deeper than the Mariana trench…
But I have heard that the homesickness situation at NCSSM gets kind of bad, especially during the 2nd trimester. But becoming more independent is part of the SSM experience, after all. </p>
<p>@IceeSky AW MAN DIVERGENT. I’m so excited about that movie, but I can’t go see it this weekend 
Are you going?</p>
<p>@willsister1 Wait, do you have a job? You get…paid? I’m in awe of you right now. </p>
<p>@Chyang Don’t worry I will <3
Also we’re lucky that we live <em>fairly</em> close to SSM
In fact, my parents’ work office place is like 15 mins away. My mom said she’d have lunch with me on Fridays or something lol</p>
<p>DIVERGENTTTTTTTTTT AHHHHHHH too bad I can’t go this weekend. Perhaps over spring break…</p>
<p>@chyang I’m a tutor. Its not really a job I guess. She pays me $15 bucks a week. My mom told me that I’m getting ripped off because I go there 3 or 4 hours a week. At least she pays me now, I did it for free from October until January. </p>
<p>NC STATE NOOOOOOOO</p>
<p>13 days left 7 hours 57 mins</p>
<p>@WhiteRabbit98 Nice John Green reference!</p>
<p>@ whoever said this idk i dont keep up
I’m doubting myself a lot about whether or not I’ll get in. It’s always awkward because everyone says I’ll get in, but they don’t know about the other competition. I’m going to stress this until April 3 @5:05. (because it might be late, and, regardless, it’ll take at least 5 minutes to sink in.)
13 days 6 hours 20 minutes</p>
<p>@Chyang I’m going to see it on Sunday!(: </p>
<p>I’ve never read The Fault in our Stars (I’m more into fantasy and sci-fi books… depressing stuff isn’t my style) but I love Crash Course World History! </p>
<p>Less than two weeks left!!! :D</p>
<p>My birthday is tomorrow </p>
