And I just partied way too hard and didn't get good grades and didn't take it seriously.
And so there was a day, I remember it very distinctly.
I was at a friend's house having stayed up too late the night before.
And my dad called me and said, hey, you should probably come home.
There's a whole bunch of very small envelopes here from colleges.
So I actually got rejected from every college I applied to the first time I applied to colleges.
And I got all the rejection letters on the same day.
It was a bad day.
So then I reapplied to some other schools.
I had wanted to go to the University of Notre Dame.
And I called them and I said, where are some schools that have a compatible curriculum with yours?
Because I would really love to work hard and then transfer.
So they gave me a list.
I went to one of those schools.
I got very good grades.
I transferred to Notre Dame.
So now I'm a sophomore at Notre Dame.
And I didn't know anybody.
I met, they do, it's not like freshman year where you have all this amazing orientation.
You transfer students, they're like, here's your room number, like, see you later.
