haha, thanks for that. unfortunately it won me no scholarships but did get me an immediate offer as a paid intern in the PR office writing ads for my school and a spot hosting a show on the radio station, a wait-list offer from emerson college despite my abysmal grades, a face-to-face offer from a bennington college rep to spend a year at state school getting my grades up and an immediate acceptance to sbc with them overlooking my fail in environmental science and the fact that i dropped out of pre-calculus to then fail art history. thank god i have some talent, haha.
