i really only seriously started thinking abt college like end of last yr/beginning of this year (and i'm a sophomore) but it's never too late to know what you're aiming for? so then you can plan out what you're doing during the summers and what classes ur taking and stuff? but don't worry about majors like every single advisor and counselor and guest speaker has said most people will change majors several times in college! so (but i relate thats how mine are too tbh yikes)

(Also any other class of '19 people still kind of freaked out by the fact that college apps will be a Thing in just over a year and a half? just me?)

ahhh i get the feeling of wanting out...which is precisely why hku isnt my top choice lmao i wanna study in a foreign country
but hku is a good uni and my friend seems happy there so i think i'll be fine w going there as well! it's probably a good choice hk is a lot of fun it's both nature + interesting city packed into one

my dream college is Columbia University.
and also NYU would be nice but it's more expensive and prestigious.
