<p>Please list the top 5 events like this that happened to you! :)</p>
<p>hmm…
<p>1) Went skydiving. It was pretty amazing, but I probably would never do it again. </p>
<p>2) Developed an anxiety disorder. It sucks, but I feel it’s given me a better understanding of mental illness. It also confirmed that I have an underlying medical condition, so hopefully I can begin treatment soon.</p>
<p>3) Declared a math major, but decided I absolutely hate it. I’m glad I figured this out my freshman year before I dedicated too much time to it. I still thinking about what major to switch into.</p>
<p>4) Tried out some extracurriculars. Ended up quitting fencing (because one of the coaches was obnoxiously condescending) but decided I really want to continue with the TV crew.</p>
<p>5) Became more independent and outgoing.</p>
<p>1) Made some great friends
2) Got accepted into my uni’s business program
3-5) dunno</p>
<p>It was pretty uneventful.</p>
<p>1) Accepted to UPenn and will be attending there this fall
2) Gained several new friends and maintained/gained good relationships with my professors
3) Told the guy I have a huge crush on that I liked him- and the feeling is mutual (although lopsided in my favor), but we’re just being friends now because I’m going to UPenn and we’re taking it one step at a time
4) Maintained my 4.0
5) Performed onstage in a dance ensemble for my college’s concert</p>

<p>^no, haha. Congrats on getting into USC as a transfer student.</p>
<p>I had to think a lot about this one, but I think I’ve got it:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Went abroad and had the most incredible experience. It was a marine biology program in the South Pacific, and I saw some amazing things, and made some awesome new friends. Basically, it was the best three months of my life.</p></li>
<li><p>Learned that it’s OK to get a B sometimes when I’ve literally worked my a** off. I had a really unreasonable professor in my physics class in the fall and I worked harder than I ever have for…a B. In a way, it was nice - it took a lot of the pressure off because I truly realized that some things aren’t completely in my control.</p></li>
<li><p>That being said, this past term, I got a 4.0 (my school’s on trimesters - physics was on the fall, abroad in winter, came back and took classes in the spring) by taking classes that were challenging but that I genuinely enjoyed.</p></li>
<li><p>Found two different paths that I’m really interested in. The first is genetics - I think I could do genetics research later in life and be really happy with it. I took a genetics course this term, and while it was hard, something just clicked for me, and I really enjoyed it. I think it translated into my grades, too, because my professor just emailed me to tell me that he was impressed at how well I did and that he’d love to write me a letter of recommendation if I ever need one, which was awesome. The second was law, which is pretty much a 180, but I took a constitutional law class that I really, really enjoyed and did surprisingly well in. The professor told me to consider law school, and I’ve been thinking about it more and more.</p></li>
<li><p>I made a lot of new friends in different social groups.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Wow. That was more detailed than I intended. Haha.</p>
<p>Ha ha. </p>
<ol>
<li><p>Decided to take a semester off, which I promised myself I’d never do. (It was a great decision, although now I’m ready to return in the fall.)</p></li>
<li><p>Decided to transfer to a college close to where I grew up, which I also promised myself I would never do.</p></li>
<li><p>Got an internship with my state’s senate, which was amazing, and has inspired me to follow politics, and maybe eventually work for my state’s Department of Performance Evaluations. </p></li>
<li><p>Met my current boyfriend. (After promising myself I wouldn’t be in another relationship soon.) And he’s absolutely what I need right now, and exactly what I’ve been wanting in a boyfriend/relationship. </p></li>
<li><p>Realized that I’m severely passionate about LGBT issues in my state.</p></li>
