Colleges. Universities. What does it MATTER?!

Well! I suppose I could say something about the Warped Tour (since several interesting and just odd things happened there definitely worth telling about) but I'm not particularly in the mood to retell the tales of the past - no matter how interesting they were (not to mention funny). I'm in the mood to complain about the fact that time flies by so quickly the older you get. Recently (today, more like) I found out that by around this time next year, I would be a high school graduate and, therefore, a legal adult (no matter how funny that sounds when connected with me). Then I also got 2 letters in the mail. One from Stephen F. Austin State University. Another from Rockford College. The Austin one just told me that they recieved my SAT score and told me to apply as soon as possible. The next one was just to tell me about the college. It was the second or third time I heard from it. Sooo... I was thinking and doing a bit of research. NOW I feel like perhaps considering Rockford College. One problem: it's in Illinois. Sooo, I've come here to siphon off my thoughts and basically try to figure out what to do about the colleges and to sort it all out.
