<p>so
five hours ago i go to the store below my apartment and i fax in my reply card to duke.
yup, i am now officially a dukie! wooooohooooooooooooooo!!</p>
<p>just wanted to thank everyone on this forum who answered my questions and helped me decide that duke is the place for me.</p>
<p>i've held a basketball precisely 5 times in my life (not too popular a sport here), but something tells me this fall my face is going to painted blue and i shall be leading a maniacal dance around a bonfire after we kick tarheel @ss.</p>
<p>so, indulging my love for melodrama, i thought i'd copy-paste the first and last lines of my "why duke?" essay..</p>
<p>'I remember the advice the Mad Hatter gave to Alice, lost in Wonderland. Im not sure where Im going, Alice laments. Oh, but any direction will do, the Hatter assures her.
In Wonderland, maybe. This is life.'</p>
<p>blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah </p>
<p>'This is life.</p>
<h2>Duke, is my Wonderland.'</h2>
<p>GO BLUE DEVILS!!!!!!!!</p>
