I went to a JC for 3 semesters before I transferred to SDSU. I had wanted to go to SDSU since high school, but since it is like 9 hours away my parents said I could not go away right away. When it actually came time for me to apply to go away I only wanted to go to SDSU. Applying was stressful enough. I had my counselor from my JC telling me that I was waiting my time because I would never get into SDSU as a lower division transfer. When I did get my letter it was after school on October 28, 2000. I went to my mailbox and there was a stack of mail. Stocking out of the top was the corner of the envelop, and I saw the SDSU symbol. I pulled it out and it was a large thin envelop. I was like "ITS BIG!!!" like it was a good thing, and "ITS THIN!!!" like it was a bad thing. So I ripped it open and all I saw was congratulations. I ran into my house and up stairs and gave my Mom the biggest hug-she started to cry because she didn't want me to go. It was one of the happiest days of my life!!
