Education & Reference - 28 September 2007

My GPA is about 3.3 weighted, however, I have a 1390 on the SAT 740 Reading 650 Math, I'm retaking the SAT in October though so hopefully it'll up mine to 1400 and I got a 30 on the ACT.

I've taken Six AP courses so far (Freshman through Junior), plus three my senior year (nine total), all of the tests i've passed.

As far as extra curricular is concerned, i've been a Varsity member of my High School's debate program for fours years, I got fourth place in my homestate of Florida for Social Studies Academic Games earlier this year, I was a People to People Student Ambassador in 2003, and last year I did the Presidential Classroom Future World Leaders Summit.

What do you guys think? I'm sure it probably rests on my essay, any tips on the FSU essay? Or should I apply for Summer?

Is it even possible to major in something like this, or is it something that you would minor in, in addition to a major?

What types of job oppurtunities are available to you, or what kind of career could you get if you were to major in Cultural Studies?

I found this Japanese Quote and I was wondering if anyone knows what it means.

"With the first glass a man drinks wine, with the second glass the wine drinks the wine, with the third glass the wine drinks the man."

I don't understand it.

I'm not Catholic, but there's this Catholic university in New Brunswick (Canada) called St. Thomas University, that looks like it actually might be a pretty good fit for me. I don't think it's super-catholic, but it just historically happened to be Catholic. But the thing is - I'm Jewish. There's actually a Jewish group on campus, as well as a gay + lesbian group (I'm a lesbian), so they do seem pretty liberal. But is it still a bad idea to go to a Catholic university if I'm not Catholic? (I feel like my parents may be uncomfortable if they hear "Catholic University")

(I'm in grade 11, by the way - I don't have to decide this right away, I'm just looking at stuff right now.)

Does The Size of Our Pocket Matter?
Do you want to be a millionaire? A lot of people dream about it every night. Sure it would be great to acquire almost anything you want but, is it really more important than a healthy cheerful family? Many people are unaware of the problem and responsibilities money can bring to a person life. Although money is an important factor of living, one must not give up his or her life, demanding to become wealthy.
In the olden times people used gold and silver as a source of trade which was truly
inconvenient, this in turn brought the concept of money as a way of trade to citizens. Money can
change the way a person looks at things. There are lots of sayings out their explaining that
money is the root of all evil. It is what makes one do awful and regrettable deeds. Money makes
you get away from the things you loved and your proper friends that actually care about you and
not your capital. This wealthy person starts acting, speaking, and even thinking differently. The
concept of money brings an entire new personality to the person.
As if change was not enough for this wealthy man, this person also experiences problems. A common person has the belief that big numbers will resolve all their troubles and will bring them a life of happiness. This might be true to some sense but truth is they just are not happy. In fact, wealthy people are more likely to suffer from depression and stress due to the amount of responsibility money brings. The Millionaires will have to watch their every move because the spotlight will be always on them. The phrase “with great power comes great responsibility” comes into play tremendously with this wealth. In my opinion money should be looked at more as a concept then something you need in order to be succesfull. Successful

I have been emailing back and forth with the man who is supposed to interview me for Georgetown. He has just given me his cell phone number, and I feel as though that's a hint that I should, perhaps call him. But to say what? Also, we will be meeting after dinner at his house one night. How dressed up should I get?
