This morning I received an email from the regional chairman of Korean American Scholarship Foundation (KASF) saying that I won the scholarship! Hey, hey hey- free money! Yay!
See? I have my stuff together. My dad for some reason makes it seem like I am just playing around and not doing well in school. He makes unnecessary and backward comments about grades EVERY time I talk to him. Let's look at the facts: I generally do very well in school, I am in one of the world's most fascintating cities, I have made great friends, AND I just won an awesome scholarship. I think it would be very greedy, sad, and anal-retentive of me to let the difference between an A and A- trump all those things. Whatever, I just got a load of free money, and it's the weekend! I am out of here!
