How It All Went Down

Applying to Yale was to me the equivalent of a part time job on top of my real job, school, and all the other extra curricular activities I thought I could handle this semester. I had to bully a couple people and turn into a stocker to one of them, but I got everything properly submitted...except for my ACT scores. Since the ACT headquarters hadn't cashed my check in a month, I called to see what was up and if they were ever going to send my scores to Yale. Long story short, they can't. It turns out when I took the ACT test, it was a residual test which after a lot of phone calls I found out means that ACT and Weber State have some kind of contract (conspiracy) with each other stating that they will not share my test results with any other school, therefore making my application to Yale incomplete therefore, void. Needless to say, I was heartbroken. I pouted for a good week and a half, and am now refocused and scraping together backup plans in case my backup plan of BYU also falls through ( I should hear from them in the next couple of weeks).
My current train of thought is just to buy a one way ticket to somewhere (London, Taiwan, Hawaii) and see what happens. If there are any great ideas out there, shoot them my way.
