I am going skiing this weekend, so the money will be put towards ski rental and other expenses. I haven\u2019t been skiing for four years, (mostly financial reasons), so I am kind of excited about this weekend. On my birthday, about 12 friends had a suprise party for me, which was pretty exciting. Now I have to register to vote and for the draft.<\/p>\r\n<p>Well, I heard from UC Davis and UC Santa Cruz (I got accepted by both) but I am still waiting to hear from Harvard, Brown, Penn, Boston University, and other UC Schools. That\u2019s about all the news from down here. Thanks again for the present.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"text-right\">Love,<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"text-right\">Joaquin<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A thank-you note from Jay about a birthday present. \u201cOn my birthday, about 12 friends had a suprise party for me, which was pretty exciting.
