Keep at it, babe! It's very easy to feel defeated by "institutions", like that college of yours, but you have to keep in mind that they are just people like you and me, and it's hard for them to keep up with the workload sometimes! So, if you just call up, and ask about your application, be polite and upbeat, you WILL get somewhere. It's easy to give up, I know! lol Chin up pet, you will get friends and have fun! I know that, even if I have an ok social life, I'd still swap with you and be 21! lol
