The End of the World Often Comes

Sun Jul 12, 2009, 6:01 PM
  • Mood: Cheerful
  • Listening to: Bon Iver
  • Reading: Cloud Atlas
So this is really Sunday, July 12th.
This smiley is nice. It is carrying balloons and is adorable, and reminds me of "The Man," which is an obscure EPGY reference that I will miss dearly.
So I spent the last three weeks at Stanford University, studying 20th century art movements, literary works, and general history. It was all sorts of beautiful, and I feel all sorts of different for going. But it is a wonderful different. I have never been so happy to change.
And now I'm listening to Bon Iver and thinking of this lovely kid that I met there and Salvador Dali and Pomegranates and the painting that I really should be working on. I feel as if the most beautiful people are the ones that you see the least, but miss the most. I hope you are all doing well, and are having a nice summer, and that you're generally content with everything that is happening and has happened and will happen. It's the world's greatest secret.

Love,

-Alice

with the page.

I really miss you. D: It's quite unfortunate that one month of summer vacation has already passed.
Although, I'm glad that you're having a great time. Are you thinking about going to Stanford?

Dali is so wonderful! He's such an inspiration. :)
What's your favourite work by him?
And thank you. How are you?

I really do miss you as well! What's your schedule again? I can't remember if we have any classes together. :o
I'd love to go to Stanford. Really. I'll give my heart and soul into the application, and try my absolute best. I'm not quite sure if I'll be accepted, or even considered, but in short- it's my dream school, and it's entirely perfect. Where do you have in mind?

4 Computer Portfolio
5 AP Physics

I believe that's about right. I might end up changing my schedule in the first week. Hopefully AP Physics isn't going to be too much of a nightmare and AP US worries me a bit. >_o
I don't really have a place in mind. As long as a college has engineering as a possible major, I might consider it.
