Like, literally hid the letter. I got accepted at f'ing Carnegie Mellon. Oh, and Duke. WHAT THE HELL, UNC. Anyway, little less alone now. Merci bien.<BR/><BR/>1.

I just chose the 4-year college that was close to my job.<BR/><BR/>But for law school, that is a different matter. Applied and accepted at Texas, Tulane, Vandy and Emory. Went to UGA because the instate tuition was cheap. And it was well worth it - my student loans are firmly under control and will be paid off early.<BR/><BR/>Ten:<BR/><BR/>1.

Back-up to the back-up to the back-up. Oddly enough, only Auburn had the good sense to turn me down flat.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, having spent a long weekend on the Missouri campus, I can tell you your life would be no different had you gone there. That place is Athens Part II - looks the same, feels the same, chicks are the same. In other words, it's fantastic.Josh M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04054764121030646400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11250715.post-31264354528410606372008-09-26T09:50:00.000-04:002008-09-26T09:50:00.000-04:00Georgia, Virginia...
