fly like an eagle

i went to BC's admitted eagle day today. it was gorgeous. everyone was ridiculously nice from the get-go. the very first person i met was some admissions officer guy who was so sweet, and happy with his job, and so appreciative of us, of me. the last person i met was this other prospective student from chicago who seemed wicked cool, like i'd want to be her friend when we're both there, and she was wicked nice as was her mom. and! everyyyyyone congratulated each kid for getting in. i thought that was nice. like they finally appreciate the hard work high schoolers do!

i felt comfortable there. it was a very welcoming, warm environment. the whole jesuit philiosphy is so moral and just GOOD. i think my values would go a long way there. and i'd grow a lot as a person.

the academics are amazing. the presentations on the business school, communications and marketing were really appealing to me. even more appealing was the help available to figure myself out and what i want to do. doesnt hurt the business school is in the prettiest building there.

it was a text book definition of a "college." there were kids playing frisbee on the greens. everyone was wearing either northfaces or bc gear. the campus is a legit campus. the dorms are dorm-y (and pretty nice for dorm-y dorms). everyone was smiling and happy looking. all the kids i saw were having a good time, and said they loved it.

and the green line is rightt there. so i could hop in and show kids not from the area around boston. and get an internship there. and a job in the future. :o)

and study abroad! i want to study abroad!

the people were not snobby like i thought they'd be. i didnt see anyone in gucci stillettos or armani suits walking around on the regular, the style some people warned me of (maybe thinking i wouldnt keep up? ha, lol.) they were NORMAL looking. like not weird british twin boys who dont talk or strangly white chicks from the suburbs with orange leggings, polka dotted skirts, and floral ten-sizes-too-big sweaters like i met at BU. and there is diversity at BC! which i didnt think there was. and im glad there is because i'd get bored otherwise.

oh and did i mention hot guys? in every possible direction i looked in. true story.




long stroy short: i'm cancelling my shadowing appointment at BU that i had for tuesday.


i am now a BC Eagle.
