Thank you luckyfool. You are a gentleman and a scholar for helping me with terran, giving me encouragement, and giving me structure.

I have calculus to do, but I have jumped from 27 in my diamond division to #6 in like 4 days.

I am indeed on a winning streak.

http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/profile/1046319/1/Froadac/matches

Meanwhile, I roll around in agony about which schools to apply to.

U texas raised tuition recently, looking at it again it's not very good to app to now.

U dub is a better choice, still not cheap though.

Also looking at which program to apply to at USC. I cannot make up my mind :/ Would like to pick up a cultural minor of some sort, but I dont' want to ahve to stay the extra year. Time is too precious :/

Apply to marshall, or viterbi.

And if I go elsewhere should I even bother majoring in econ?

Gaaah. Succeed on ladder fail at life. Fail at life succeed on ladder.

(although thanks qxc for profound time management advice lol)

It shouldn't be too hard to change majors at USC but I would still apply to Viterbi given that a lot of schools make it easy to transfer out of an engineering school but difficult to transfer in to one. If Marshall is more impacted than Viterbi then forget what I said.

The Texas app is a joke pretty much--I was bored the day it was due and literally did everything including the essays in about two hours. You're pretty much guaranteed acceptance from out of state if you've taken some math//science APs I think.

Well. QXC is sitting on lawn.

Riku is doing something random. But it may not be riku. There is a resemblance at the very least.

Day[9] was probably too busy playing Starcraft in his room for that photoshoot.

Actually, I would have never heard of Harvey Mudd if it weren't for him.

Sorry that I won't be much help with Colleges since I studied in the UK. But econ high five!

I recommend setting up an appointment with an academic counselor to plan your post secondary path.

I believe Sean did go there and also had his Countdown party there as well. Feel free to correct and shame me if I'm wrong

Great work on your ladder too

Is it me dressed up in a costume?

I think there is a picture of me from my Shakespeare class in there, I'm dressed up as my version of Puck, which is kind of raven-esq.

I feel like I'm the only one thats still a volatile division. 4th to 39th would be an afternoon of fucking up for me.

Gratz on your achievement though!

My division is brutal too. Ranks 30-10 are within about 80 points of each other lmao. So if you lose more than one game in a row, you plummet 5 ranks at least. GL on getting into masters man, just keep playing and you'll get there!

PS. I'm a high school senior too!
