I applied to 16 college and have been rejected by 4 so far. None of them were my top choices, but it’s pretty depressing. For the first 3 I actually cried because I was convinced I wasn’t going to get into any colleges, but by the 4th rejection (which I got today) I just laughed it off. This whole process is leaving me pretty jaded. Like at this point, even though I want to get into a good college I’ve decided to just get expect rejection so the letdown is easy. That’s kind of depressing to read, heh. But anyway, I’ve still got a tiny bit of faith left. fingers and toes crossed
I forgave my father. Not to his face (because he would never apologize anyway) but I told myself that despite what he says, he loves me and thinks it’s for the best, even if it hurts me. We’re not going to ever be close, but now when he yells at me or says something that’s offensive/hurtful, I can control myself and not scream at him. In fact, I can actually look at him and see a kind of vulnerability. I can see he genuinely means well and thinks tough love will help me in the end. Though it won’t help our relationship, who knows? Maybe his tough love approach will motivate me in college.
