<p>My hopeful college(MIT) and proposed college grad year (2016)</p>
<p>I didn’t put much thought behind it lol. </p>
<p>“Running on empty” was just phrase I recalled and liked because I reminded of desperation or lost hope. I couldn’t remember where I heard of it – until a few months, when we talking about celebrity deaths/depression in health class. Someone mentioned River Phoenix and the movie Running on Empty, then I remembered I heard of a reference to that movie when I was little. The “xx-” don’t mean anything.</p>
<p>I couldn’t imagine a better name for myself (pun intended).</p>
<p>Mine was completely random-ish. My name isn’t Hazel, nor do I have hazel eyes…I just wanted ‘hazel’ in it lol.</p>
<p>Double Meaning.</p>
<p>AU… As in the Latin word for gold/the element symbol in chemistry. Yay for geekiness!</p>
<p>And I just happen to really want to go to American University.</p>
