I would never get into Stanford. Last semester HS is difficult to focus. I took all nonsense except Frosh English at Citrus College (which transferred.) never occurred to me Stanford might pull acceptance. Last week, seniors had to get teachers to sign off for graduation. On my list: Drivers Ed, required for graduation. Oh shit, never thought about that. Went to the office to ask who my teacher was, then went to find him. I introduced myself, he checked his list, said, "I gave you a C+, is that okay?" Man, it was a magical time.
