School (my head or my heart)
My little sister, Didi, is a senior in high school. She is dead smart and i'm not just saying that because i am her older sister, she is! She is getting ready to go to college and has applied to Temple, Howard and other schools which i am going to ignore because her final decision is one of these schools. She really wants to go to Temple and everyone was talking her into going to temple and when she said she wanted to apply to Howard, no one took the school seriously. I am in no way bashing Howard, it is a great school, but I seriously doubt that its the school that I see my sister at and many people have told her the same thing. BUT THEN she got a full ride (told ya she's smart) she also got a scholarship to temple, but it wasn't a full ride and she was also accepted into temples honor program. Regardless of all that, everyone has now jumped on the Howard ban wagon. I'm still team Temple because i know she will love it there regardless if it cost a little more. It seems as soon as money comes into the situation, the persons happiness takes a back seat for whats "cheaper". Is that fair? should she go to a school her heart isn't at because it's cheaper, is it worth it? People now act as if it's a no brain-er where she should go, but she is torn. Her head doesn't agree with her heart.
