I'm. So. Tired.

My dream school of all time is Yale but I know I'm not smart enough to get into that college, nevermind just having the damn funds for that school. I actually decided to come to Occ the week of May 1st, which is when the colleges need to know if you have accepted their scholarships/acception into their school. I had planned on going to Rider University the day I stepped on the campus and I had my heart set on it until my parents kept ragging on me to do the Stars Program. I wound up choosing Occ only because of the Stars program since I plan on going to med school in a couple of years and know that I'm going to need to save as much money possible to pay for it. Rider is usually almost 40 grand a year but I would have been paying 29 grand a year. My parents have 100 grand saved for my college and I figured that if I went to Rider I woulda blown threw that in 4 years and would be up the creek without a paddle for med school so I decided to go the cheaper way and do stars. I sometimes regret not going to Rider but I know I made a smart choice financial-wise. After Occ, I plan on transferring to Rutgers University in New Brunswick.
