There are a lot of good essays in that contest... although I was definitely not a fan of the first place one from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TotusTuusMaria Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 (edited) Very nice. I think you made a really good choice on the tux. I really like the charcoal tie. Edited February 28, 2009 by TotusTuusMaria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got into the Honors College at the local college in my neighborhood. (: I've heard A LOT of good things about it, even that it's better than one of the universities in the area, so I'm real happy that I got accepted. There was an interview and everything. It's free and I get all my scholarship money back, so all I have to do now is keep my grades up, find tons more scholarships, and it's out of state here I come! OH! And... I'm a [b]finalist[/b] for Fireside Catholic Publishing's 2009 scholarship for $1000! I wrote an essay about the impact religious education has made on my life and I am a finalist out of I think 35 or so from about 400 entries. (I'll check the exact numbers later). Anyways, I'm the only one from my state (Ohio seemed to repeat a lot) and the only one with a Hispanic-sounding name. Prayers please![/quote] congrats!!
