Who's Who

Post by God Emperor »

Well I just go a letter in the mail today from Who's Who and well I'll just type out the first part.

David(me) is in the top 5% of students who have achieved academic excellenceand will have their biography printed in the 37th Edition of Who's Who Among American High School Students.

Thats most of it and all the other stuff says is about getting scholarships, the only thing is I have no idea how I got this award.

I know that you believe that you understood what you think I said, but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

I got this three or four times in high school. I think one of my teachers recommended me for it, probably the same with you.

The main reason it exists is so that the company can make money off of sales of the book. It's good for filling in space on college applications, though.

[note] I don't mean to demean your accomplishment, it certainly means something. They may be operating for profit but they still only accept the best students.

I'm studying for the CPA exam. Have a nice summer, and if you're down just sit back and realize that Joe is off somewhere, doing much worse than you are.

Nominated three times, accepted twice (forgot about it once) and also made it into the college edition. Got a nice plaque on the wall.

Congrats.
