Stanford, Duke, Dartmouth........

Getting through Stanford is my dream come true. I have always wanted to study in a top american university as long as I can remember. When I had started the whole application process, I kept Stanford as my dream university. I wasn't sure if I would get in. So whenver I would find myself having California dreams, I would tell myself..wait...wait......didn't want to feel terrible incase I didn't make it. At the same time I had a feeling that I would.
Decision making has always been a tough one for me. I love Duke and Dartmouth. Duke ensures closeness to friends. Dartmouth is giving me 50% scholarship. Stanford offers neither of the above two. But the biggest brand name ever and the opportunity to work under the best faculty in the whole wide world. So here I go sacrifysing security of having close friends around and money for name and fame!!!!
Just kidding!!I love stanford and it is a league above every other university for me...
So california...here I come.......
Oh..and I am at work and my boss is sitting right behind me....I don't know if he can see me not working or maybe he knows how hard I work and prefers me taking breaks!!He did say today that" Tanu, the only way we are going to let you leave this company is if you find a replacement just like yourself!!!"
Ok, now people reading this are going to think I am in love with myself...Well, yes I am..How can you love someone else till you don't love yourself!!
Enjoy....
