Binks Is Here

Commentary on the World

So… the UW wants me….

Yep! I’ve been accepted as a student at the University of Waterloo as part of their Honors Arts program with a major in Legal Studies. W00t!

So, I’m sure you all remember that fiasco with the additional student information they wanted but didn’t hardly mention, and I said it should be in big bold letters on that thing that they send out. Well, for some reason, on the thing that mentioned that I’m accepted, right on the front of it, against a white background, it says “YOU’RE IN” in big, giant, black bold letters. Well, shit, that’s great, but for something like that I can afford to take the time to open the letter and look it over and stuff, for the student information junk, that was time sensitive. I’ve got 4 months to decide whether or not I’m going to accept their offer, yet I only had 3 WEEKS to get in the information. Which I never did, by the way. I was going to finish that off and fax it off tonight, the night that I got the acceptance letter. Guess that tells me how important that student stuff REALLY was.

They congratulated me 8 times, just within the 3 (Count ‘em) letters that were enclosed. I haven’t counted the “congrats” on all the other sheets of paper that were in there. If I had…. $1200 for every time they said congratulations, my (first year) of university could be paid for….Wow, that was surprisingly depressing….

I think I need a Paypal link for University donations….. :(
