Rant: Trying to go to Sleep

Well, at about 1:30 AM last week, I was trying to go to sleep after playing a hard but fulfilling game of League of Legends. But much to my furor, I found that I couldn't go to sleep at all. But since I'm not a complete nerd who studies whenever he's not asleep, I decided to just lie on my bed and listen to my mp3 player and the radio until I could go to sleep.

I had recently downloaded a audiobook of the Terry Pratchett's "Going Postal" from his Discworld Series for fun. For those of you who never read any of the discworld series, it is a fucking great series that parodies almost every fanasy/sci-fi genre book. I really got into listening to the book when I realized something; I'm not asleep.

The book was too fucking interesting to fall asleep on because I kept on wondering what would happen next! Enraged, I immediately turned off my mp3 player and proceeded to simply lie on my bed again. But after an indeterminate amount of time, I realized that I was bored now, and decided to listen to the NPR on the radio.

Then I BEGAN TO HEAR SOME SHIT ABOUT SOME GUY SELLING TRUFFLES! THIS IS WHAT THE AMERICAN LATE NIGHT RADIO HAS COME TO, I thought, and just started flipping through all the channels on the radio. And you know what? I realized something; I still wasn't fucking asleep.

At this point, I needed to go wee-wee and I checked the time on my phone just to see how much longer I had until the buses would come. It was already 3'o clock and I only had about three and a half hours to sleep. Now I know some people at TJ only sleeps like 40 min each day and probably thinks I'm a pussy right now as they're reading this blog. But screw you people, I'm actually a human being and need decent amount of time to function properly in everyday life.

So I just decided to give up on sleeping and just study math until the buses would come and you know what happened?

I feel asleep in about 10 min.

Rant: Of Colleges

"Well shit."
That was my first thought when I realized that I would need to apply to colleges at long last. When I was little, I thought colleges were some mystic and fantastic place that only ficitonal beings called "High Schoolers" could go to. But 5 years ago, I saw my sister applying to colleges, I realized that fantasy was much closer to reality than I realized. I saw my sister's rejections and acceptions from colleges and I must now take up the mantle in the Choi family, the mantle of "OH SHIT COLLEGES APPS WTF AM I GONNA DO? IM SO SCREWED FOR LIFE I WILL PROABALY END UP A HOBO" mantle that is!
A mantle. Tad less impressive than I thought.
Now it is the time to prepare for early actions/decisions and im already running into some problems. My biggest weakness is that my GPA is trash, so I will be using the secret technique of "Apply everywhere and you'll at least get into some place". I got so many essays and shits to write now, and must get 2400 on SAT if I am to get into a college with "Asian seal of Approval".
The head of the Asian Association for Approving Asiatic Academies. AAAAA for Short. 
Wish me luck people. Will update my escapades.
