Realization of accomplishment by that fabulous kid with brains and class beyond her years is the trail mix of cerebral snax. Imagining different turnout of this life if I got a scholarship at age 17 is not the crux of what it means in real value - we're saying it's gonna be a better world because it happened. Skipping the humility of the free ride fuck up that happens when you've had it given to you and you end up losing it by neglect is the shit version compared to someone who really deserves it, gets it and changes life the way we know it //Paul dance starts here. How happy are you? Well, if you're the kind of person who has to be taught to forget that you just don't know how to get rid of unhappiness, you may not get this - but if you wake up happy in the morning you increase the chances that ecstatic may just slip in. This is one of those days of ecstasy. That campus is already a cooler place because of your presence. And this little oasis that you love almost as much as we do, is a happier place today.

an appropriate joke for our scholar: A man is on his first visit to Boston, and he wants to try some of that delicious New England seafood that he'd long heard about. So he gets into a cab, and asks the driver, "Can you take me to where I can get scrod?" The driver replies, "I've heard that question a thousand time, but never in the pluperfect subjunctive."
