Poem: The soul sometimes feels a near ghoulish demise, I chose to write about my own experience. Thoughts?
[Title] A Ghoulish Demise
Watch the chains twisting
Dragging me onward
Eyes keep resisting
To look back or forward
Hands cold in blood stains
Feet crushed and broken
Oh, these cruel chest pains
Throb like a token
Out of kind hate
Thrashing and wailing
Heart in a still state
Exploding and failing
And I just…scream and yell and flail my head around in circles
Smashing bones and giving up on constant struggles I can’t seem to win at all
Shredding flesh and skin like meat from hogs and cattle
Blazing fires beneath me burn, tormenting every time my spirit takes a fall
How did I get here, You’ll undertstand me
Steel blade’s a raw tool
Make your incision
Who is the blind fool
In my position
Speared in the ribcage
Squealing soft organs
Music of calm rage
Delight of pagans
Every direction
There’s no escaping
Demons defile, shun
It’s me they’re raping
And I just…thrust a kick and throw a punch upon their grotesque faces
Deafening my scarred and mangled ears to shrieks of pleasure in my fear
One more stagger to unleash my fury, slay each one
Before they shoot me down and steal away my soul for good and leave me here
How did I get here, You’ll understand me
Yesterday’s distant
This night’s much closer
Shades are persistent
Midnight’s composer
Conducts the music
Grumbled and mellow
Notes weak and basic
Mocking my sorrow
Do I give in, Lord
Where’s my tomorrow
My breathing’s one chord
Raspy and shallow
And I just…crack and go insanely mad with pure frustration
I know You can hear me pleading to have mercy but no light does shine at all
Begging like a guilty child and sobbing loudly
Tears hysterically pour out on the soot and ash, my knees do harshly fall
Now, I’m just dying, too weak and sickly
How did I get here, qucik and discreetly
How do I leave here, will You just carry me away…from here
Different than your usual. I prefer you usual, but hey, who am I ?

What Colleges do you think i can get into realilistically? What Colleges should i apply to?
I go to John Burroughs School. A very well known high school to all heads of college admissions. Its on of the best liberal arts high schools in the U.S.A.
I have a full academic scholarship to my school. I don?t even have to pay for my books.
I played basketball and baseball until tenth grade when i got injured during baseball season. Since then i?ve only played golf.
I have a 3.85 GPA unweighted.
I have a 4.21 Weighted.
I Get A?s in all of my classes except in history. I get B?s and B Pluses
I?m a little bit behind schedule because i came to my school in 9th grade and it starts in 7th grade and i had to take the lower track classes to begin with because my previous public school hadn?t prepared me for the rigor of my new school.
So i?m a senior this year. And i?m going to be taking PreCalculus which is the regular course instead of Calculus, the advanced track.
I?m going to be taking Spanish 4 honors instead of Spanish 5 AP.
I am however taking English 4 AP and Biology AP which are the advanced track.
I also plan to start taking french this year. I?m especially interested in learning multiple languages.
I got a National Honors Mention for my PSAT score– 211.
I also have received two Gold Standard Awards in the NSE (NATIONAL SPANISH EXAM) for scoring within the top 5 percent of the country.
SAT is 2190.
CRITICAL READING 670
ENGLISH 760 with an 8 on the essay
MATH 760
I?m also Co-Creator and Co-President of the Comedy Club at my school. My Club makes funny videos and skits to present in assembly. Last year we raised over 3,000 dollars with tshirt sales and donated all the proceeds to a needy charity.
Every Spring break i have gone on a school trip.
9th Grade year i went to southern missouri and completed 50 hours of community service for needy mothers.
10th Grade year i went to Panama (the country) to improve my spanish with about 20 other kids from my school. I also did community service down there.
11th Grade year i returned to panama and even further improved my spanish.
10th grade summer i worked full time.
This summer i worked full time selling extended service contracts for automobiles over the phone. I Sold these in spanish. Which i think should look really good for college. I?m ninety percent fluent in spanish. All of which i learned through school and school trips.
I really need financial aid. My family is in no position to pay for me to go to any of the colleges i list, if i don?t receive any financial aid.
So that?s an important thing. If i got into the right school then i could take out college loans obviously, but i?d like to stay away from borrowing huge sums.
One other thing is that i plan to retake the SAT in order to try to raise my critical reading score. because its far below my other scores.
SOO anyways, some of the colleges i am considering applying to are
1)Duke University
2)Grinnell college
3) Indiana University
4)Kenyon College
5)Miami University
6)Northwestern University
7)Tulane University
8)University of Florida
9)University of Illinois
10)University of Iowa
11)University of Miami
12)University of Michigan
13)University of Missouri
14)University of North Carolina
15)University of Notre Dame
16)University of Texas- Austin
17)University of Washington
18)University of Wisconsin
Obviously I?m not going to apply to 19 colleges. I wanted some other people?s (hopefully knowledgable peoples) opinions on not only which colleges i have a good chance of getting into but also from which ones i have a good chance of getting financial aid.
Another thing is that i really like partying. I love partying.
To help you guys out, i?d rather go to a larger public school. But i know that out of state colleges are somtimes hesitant to offer financial aid to out of staters. That?s why i?ve also included smaller private schools in my list.
Obviously i have a lot of colleges and no idea which ones to choose. Any info would help. Any at all. Also if you can think of any other colleges i should apply to that are NOT on this list that are similar and you think would be a good fit for me, let me know. Also if there is anything else i could be doing in order to increase my chances of being accepted into a college or getting financial aid, please let me know. Thanks.
As far as majoring i?m really not sure. I?m only 17 years old. Thinking along the lines of business or maybe some kind of doctor. But i?m not looking for a graduate school. Just a good solid 4 year college that?s affordable for me.
You seem to be really well rounded. I attend the University of Florida and the average SAT score for applying freshman is in the 1300’s, probably closer to 1400 at this point. If the rest of the schools are anything like UF, it will just depend. You have done all the work you could to get in, so don’t stress. The spanish will help you A TON so you are good for doing that.
You are bound to get in to some of them, and honestly I would recommend applying to as many you can afford because they are getting weirder and weirder with admissions. Some people who are truly qualified get denied and the opposite happens too.
You would most likely get into Florida, especially since you are out of state (at least, I have never heard of your school so I assume that you are from out of state). Best of luck!
