Why is Pennsylvania so interested

Random I know, but today I received a begging letter from a college near Philly, and this is the second one. I've never even heard of this college (Immaculata University). Earlier last month St. Joseph's University (in Pennsylvania) offered me their scholarship. I wish the colleges I actually want to attend would send me begging letters <_<

Thy Geekdom Come

I was offered a full-ride scholarship to Central Christian College of the Bible, lol...

Needless to say, I didn't accept.

I wanna live in that neighborhood where the Fresh Prince got beaten up by those gangsters before being sent off in a taxi, promising to smell the driver later, to Bel-Air...

I applied to Immacualata University and was accepted. It was my second choice. I only didn't go there befcause I didn't want another 4 years of all girls. It is only 15 minutes from the college I go to and is a good school.

Pennsylvania is indeed a nice state. Not only does it have two large metro areas (Philadelphia and Pittsburgh), it has a [b]lot[/b] of rural area. It's a great combination, considering states like New Jersey are almost one entire suburb.

Western Pennsylvania is a wonderful place.

We are sorely lacking in several things, which is fine with us: earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes and tsumanis. :D

We do however, have snow, which can be good or bad depending on your point of view. :)
We are also two distinctly different cultures: Philly is fast paced East Coast, and Pittsburgh is more of a Midwest town of little neighborhoods and suburbs, separated by 300 miles of farmland and the Appy Mountains.

NO WAY! wow, I need to go there. Not only do I LOVE the Basilica and the Crypt and the Bell Tower, it even has a good Student Chapel (with an actual Crucifix and Tabernacle!!!!!), daily confessions, awesome education, and my gf (with God's blessing she will still be my gf when I go to college :)), and SCOTT HAHN!!, and just an overall awesome college, but it's also not a dry campus! :cheers: haha, well, for when i'm 21 ;)

Nah, they were just rainstorms that overstayed their visit. :)
My ancestors referred to them as beasts from the East, since only hurricanes come from that direction. We only get them every couple of years and they really don't count as regular weather.
