<p>So, It's been a while since I've posted because I found out in November that West Point doesn't want people with bad eyesight, but...</p>

<p>Funnily enough I guess the left hand doesn't talk to the right very much because I got a letter from my senator a couple days ago informing me that I received a nomination. So I'm a bit frustrated but it's been a while so I guess I'm somewhat over it.</p>

<p>Also I just wanted to let people know that I have decided to go to the University of Portland, and I received a 50%+ tuition scholarship there so everything is working out okay. There's hope if you don't get in, and it really isn't the end of the world... though it does feel that way for a while.</p>

<p>Sorry to hear you won't be attending West Point, but congradulations on your choice to attend the University of Portland. It's a beautiful and very interesting area of the country, and I think you'll enjoy it immensly. And you're correct, it's not the end of the world. Good luck and best wishes.</p>

<p>What a great attitude you have WPwannabee. I truly believe there is a reason for everything that we experience in life. Both the highs & the lows. Congratulations on getting in to UoP! :D I know that is a fantastic school, we have friends whose kids have gone there & loved it. Enjoy your college experience to the fullest.</p>
