So, last year, right before summer, I applied for this art school, Interlochen. It's in michigan, look it up if it pleases you. It's really nice, so nice that the room and board tuition is like, $40,000. Per year. That's right. Anyway, I applied and applied for a merit scholarship, because that was the only way that I was going to be able to go. So, lots later, I got a letter, actually a big envelope, that contained my acceptance letter as well as the school handbook, etc. I was sooo happy. But then, as you can imagine, something came along and ruined it. I did not get the merit scholarship. Long story short, I'm still at my same old non-boarding non-arts high school. Upsetting, but I like my school. Anyway.
So today I come home, and check the mail, you know. There is this GIANT packet thing from Interlochen. They keep sending me these things. Like, summer camp info and stuff. Oh, here it gets better. At the back of this info thing, telling of all the wonders of Interlochen and its programs (I applied to creative writing) is an application. That's right. I sent a letter back after my acceptance, but not being able to afford it, stating my reasons for not going. Seriously. Now, they send me an application? I swear, I wanted to go so badly, and pretty much gave up on going, because of the money. I don't want their stupid applications! I tossed it. Doesn't make me feel better, I kind of want to dig it out of the trash. But I'm not going to torture myself.
Wow, that felt good. See? I knew there was a reason I kept a blog! Venting about the little things. Thanks :)
OH, and a really late happy new years.
