I M N Anteater

Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages! The Garcia family and UC Irvine proudly present to you...THE NEXT ANTEATER!!!

That's right, I have decided on going to UC Irvine. It took lots of time, thought, and deep sobbing (fuckin' UCLA) for me to come to this decision. One thing that motivated me to choose UCI is the fact that it costs less than UC Santa Barbara ($2000 less). The second thing is that UCSB is a lot farther than UCI. Although I feel that I need to leave this place for a while, I don't think I can handle being that far away from "the city I live in, the City of Angels" (Red Hot Chili Peppers: Under the Bridge). There is also the fact that it is known for lots of Asians. I welcome that, as I am comfortable hanging out with them, as well as I find them very attractive (the ladies, of course). But what truly helped me is this gut feeling that I got after the rejections from LA and Berkeley. It's callin' out to me. Weird, huh?

Don't get me wrong; UCSB is a great place. It's a beautiful campus right by the beach. I congratulate those that are going there and wish them the best of luck, as well as to all my friends going down their own path. It kinda sucks that I don't know anyone who's goin' along with me. Oh well...I am a loner, always have been. I work best by myself. But as long as I've got my family and friends to support me, then I think I can walk the path God has laid out for me.
