Check check

The dreaded application process for grad school has finally come. Oh joy.
Moving on...

I'm sitting here writing an essay for my application to SDSU. Oh boy, venti Pike Place Roast and Phoenix's Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix album. NOW you know I mean business. I've been sitting here reflecting on my experiences at UCSD and CSUF... and I realized how awesome my college experience was even though I graduated a year early. So, naturally, instead of pouring my soul into an essay, I thought I'd pour it out on a blog. Bear with me.
