Thanks For Helping Me Get Into College B&B!

The title of this thread may have you a bit confused, but I will explain. In December I applied to Rice University in Houston and had to write an essay on a unique perspective or experience I had on life, so of course I wrote about wetshaving. I talked about how so much of modern technology is focused on speed and convenience rather than being a quality product. I used examples of wetshaving and writing with a fountain pen to talk about how doing things faster is not always better.

Fast forward to late March and I found out I was accepted. I just recently put down my deposit and I will be headed there next fall. Also, the best thing is there is a shaving shop a few blocks away from the college:001_smile
 
Many congratulations! Rice is a fine institution that will bring you many challenges and rewards. We seem to hire a lot of Rice grads at my company (Fortune 500's #4 which just so happens to be headquarted in your neighbor in Houston). Enjoy the time, it will go by so fast your head will spin. Best advice I can give, stay until you've landed an amazing job.

Congrats, and all kudos to you.
Your experience and your ideas, expressed in your words by you.

Well done.
 
Congratulations! Lots of good jobs in this part of the world. I have more than a few friends that went to Rice.
 
Well done. Now all you need to do is find a way to let wet shaving help pay for your education :idea:

Pretty sure it only works in reverse... Wet shaving helps fund the need for student loans.

Congratulations on reaching a huge milestone in your life!
