LIFE UPDATE: What's Going On With Me?

Probably many of you are asking: what in the world has happened to me? That's a completely valid question because after all, I haven't posted in about nine months. So what actually happened in those nine months? Junior year.

I know I'm probably making an excuse as to why I haven't posted in such a long time, but please hear me out. Many things happened in Junior year. For one, I was busy studying for the SAT and the ACT (if you want more information on my experience with both standardized tests, please let me know). 11th grade was also the year when I started to become more active in my school (a little too late, don't you think?). Aside from having leadership positions in National Honors Society and Math National Honors Society, I co-founded a middle school Science Club and am currently in the midst of co-founding a library at my school. Busy year, right?

Now that I've read through what I wrote, I realize that I am probably making the biggest excuse in my life. Ha! There's no reason why I shouldn't consistently post on this blog; I have no excuse as to why I haven't been posting continually. Also, I can't promise that I'll post consistently during Senior year because tons of stuff are already going on. About that...

What's Currently Going On?

I'll make it short and simple...


  1. I finished Junior year.
  2. I took the ACT around two weeks ago. (I'm still waiting for my scores!)
  3. I'm in the process of searching and visiting colleges. (If you want more information on the colleges I'm interested in, please let me know)
  4. I actually started my college essay (Better to start early!)
  5. I'm in the process of looking for scholarships
Wow, high school was a blur. It seemed just yesterday when my Freshman self posted about starting a Pre-med club. Now I'm a rising Senior looking for excuses as to why I haven't posted in nine months. Any way, I will try my hardest to post regularly, and if you have anything you want me to talk about, please comment down below. Until next time!

1 Month at the University of Pennsylvania Update + Important Announcement!!

In light of the current college application season, I will be editing college essays for free (no strings attached!). If you want me to edit your essays, please let me know in the comment section below, and I'll reach out to you as to where to send your essays. Do not use the 'Contact' tab on the home page to contact me because it is currently not working. Like I said before, the best way to contact me is by commenting on this post.  I am a current freshman at the University of Pennsylvania (completely done with my college applications), and all essays will be deleted from my device after I finish editing them. Therefore, you do not need to worry about whether or not your essays will be plagiarized or used without your consent. I sincerely want to help you as much as I possibly could as you work on your college applications.  All the best! -Kristine __________________________________________________________________________________ Wow!

Where Am I Heading to College? (It's been a long time)

Hey guys!!! It's been quite a while since I last posted on this blog, and quite a lot has changed since then. The current state of the US and the world, with the coronavirus and the brutal death of George Floyd, is crazy. I hope you all stay safe and don't forget to wear a mask! I have been so inconsistent in posting on this blog that many of you have little to no idea where I am going to college. If you want to hear more about my extraordinarily unique college application and decision experience, please let me know! Anyhow, I know all of you have been waiting for where I plan to attend college this year. After all, I did not even tell you the schools I applied to... I am glad to say that I will be attending the University of Pennsylvania this fall, majoring in biology and on the pre-med track (obviously!). I am beyond blessed and grateful for this opportunity God has given me. I cannot wait to spend my next four years at Penn! As for this blog, I am no longer a 'pre
