• THE Letter.

  I got THE Letter today. The one from UNC. When I saw it in my mailbox I didn't know what to think.
  
  I wanted it to be an acceptance letter, but I also wanted it to be a letter saying that I didn't make it. I've gotten really excited about going to State. I've made friends with people that will be in my dorm already. I've joined groups on facebook. I have State shirts, and I don't have as much of an aversion to the color to red.
  
  Guess what THE Letter said.......
  
  
  
  
  
  It was a letter letting me know that the freshman class of 2013 at UNC was full, and unfortunately, I was not one of the lucky few that was taken off of the waiting list. THE Letter went on to say that they were sorry that I wasn't chosen and wished me luck at whatever college I went to. They mentioned the fact that I had so many family connections to the school. If you name a family member of mine, there is a VERY strong chance that they went there.
  
  After I read THE Letter, I sat in my car for a few minutes, not exactly sure of what I thought and felt. But, as I sat there, I realized that I wasn't sad. I started to feel a wave of relief wash over me. I finally didn't have to worry about deciding where I wanted to go.
  
  I wouldn't have to make the hard decision of whether I should go to my dream school that crushed me, or go to my "not so" dream school that had started to become my dream school.
  
  So, now I'm officially going to State, and I'm ok with it. In fact, I'm super excited and can't wait! I want to meet my roommate, and all the people I've met on facebook.
  
  I will always love UNC, but I'm starting to like State.
  
  I can't wait!
