take the wheel and we're justel trusting

15:43

16:44

16:46

going

16:49

yeah okay you guys let's talk so those

16:52

were all of my college decisions let's

16:54

just do like a little recap I got

16:56

accepted into Cal State Long Beach UC

16:58

Santa Cruz UC Riverside cap Holly slow

17:00

and San Diego State University so five

17:02

out of 11 acceptances and then I got

17:05

rejected from UC Davis UC Irvine UC San

17:07

Diego UCLA UC Santa Barbara and UC

17:10

Berkeley so six out of 11

17:13

rejections um yeah it's now when I'm

17:16

filming this it's now March 31st so I've

17:18

kind of had some time to process

17:20

everything and just I don't know time to

17:22

think and get all my emotions out but I

17:24

just wanted to sit here and talk with

17:26

you guys and just kind of explain the

17:27

whole college process like what I went

17:29

through and what I wasn't expecting just

17:31

all of that because I feel like you

17:32

don't really know what it feels like

17:33

until you're going through it or you see

17:35

like a family member going through it

17:36

and that's why I had like my family with

17:38

me when I opened basically all my

17:40

decisions is because I already knew I

17:41

needed their support throughout this

17:43

whole process but yeah it's it's not

17:45

easy it's actually pretty tough as you

17:47

guys know I got rejected from my dream

17:49

School

17:51

UCLA oh my God I didn't think I was

17:54

going to cry I thought I cried it all

17:55

out already but

17:57

um

18:02

obviously rejection in general was like

18:04

really

18:09

hard I don't want to mess up my makeup

18:12

but honestly to put it into words I

18:13

literally felt like going through a

18:15

heartbreak when I opened my rejection

18:16

letter from UCLA that might seem like

18:18

dramatic like oh it seems like a

18:19

heartbreak but honestly it really did

18:21

because I mean you guys know I've been

18:23

connected to this school like all my

18:24

years of high school and I would go to

18:26

the dance clinics and like Vlog on the

18:28

campus and always had it as the top

18:30

school that I wanted to go to I even put

18:32

it on like all of my vision boards and

18:34

like tried manifesting it yeah that

18:35

didn't work for me but it was really

18:37

tough um going through that and the fact

18:40

too that like all of you guys were

18:41

roting for me and everything which by

18:44

the way like thank you for all of your

18:45

like sweet comments I just remember

18:47

seeing all of you guys being like we're

18:49

praying for you or we're manifesting it

18:50

for you too and just seriously like your

18:52

guys support means

18:55

everything but yeah I just wanted to

18:57

share how this month like took a toll on

19:00

me because you know I tried my best with

19:02

my application and I feel like there was

19:04

nothing else that I could have done I

19:05

just put everything that I could and

19:07

I've worked hard for the past 4 years so

19:09

I honestly just felt like really

19:11

disappointed and kind of lost too

19:13

because I've had the next four years

19:14

planned out like if I dig into UCLA my

19:16

life would look like this and then when

19:18

I got my rejection L it was just like

19:20

nope that's not happening so I just

19:22

wanted to say like to any other seniors

19:24

out there who also went through this

19:26

process and maybe got rejected from

19:27

their dream School all your emotions are

19:29

valid um I mean I thought I cried

19:31

everything that I need to out already

19:33

but I guess I'm still crying but like

19:34

feel everything that you need to feel

19:36

like everything you're feeling 100%

19:37

makes sense because this is a really

19:39

hard time and I remember just thinking

19:41

to myself like what could I have done

19:43

better or what could I have done

19:44

differently maybe to be accepted but

19:46

also know to any of my seniors like

19:48

struggling and feeling lost that this

19:50

really is a part of God's plan and I

19:52

know that seems like really tough to

19:53

believe or like hear right now cuz like

19:55

when you're crying and like going

19:56

through it people are like oh just trust

19:58

the problem process and like you'll end

19:59

up where you're supposed to like totally

20:01

that's 100% true but it is still hard

20:03

going through the motions right now and

20:04

it's like a sucky feeling but after

20:06

feeling all those emotions for me it's

20:08

been like 2 3 weeks since the rejection

20:10

happened and I finally like come to the

20:12

realization and just accepted that God

20:14

wants me elsewhere and I may not know

20:16

the reason now and I may not know for a

20:18

couple of years but I know everything

20:20

will be okay the reason is because if

20:22

God has gotten me this far then why

20:24

wouldn't he continue taking care of me

20:26

you know um it's still sad though so

20:29

yeah this clip is probably all over the

20:31

place and like I'm such a mess as you

20:32

can see but this is just the reality of

20:35

senior year and like going through this

20:36

whole college process like it was

20:38

definitely a roller coaster of emotions

20:40

I felt so up when I opened an acceptance

20:42

letter and then so down when I got a

20:44

rejection letter but it's all a part of

20:46

life and I just know the most important

20:48

part is how you bounce back from it and

20:49

choose to keep pushing forward and keep

20:51

doing the best that you can I also just

20:53

wanted to add that I'm so grateful and I

20:55

really really thank like my parents and

20:57

my brother and all of my friends and and

20:58

of course all of you guys all my

20:59

supporters this past month was not

21:01

freaking easy so just having all the

21:03

support and like love it's really nice

21:05

some of my friends and classmates are

21:06

also going through the same thing and

21:08

it's nice having people just to like be

21:09

there and comfort you and know that

21:11

you're not alone but class of 2024 we're

21:14

you going to be okay I think it'll be

21:15

crazy though in like 2028 that's when I

21:17

graduate college just to like look back

21:19

on this video and see how like sad and

21:21

like broken I was because of the

21:23

rejection but I know like everything

21:24

will be okay in the future and like it's

21:26

all going to come together and I'll

21:28

understand it later so me in the future

21:30

I hope everything's good and I hope

21:32
