Huzzah!

(There will be a longer me-post later; this bit of news, however, totally deserves its own post.)

Framlingem, Inc, would like to extend its congratulations to the University of New Brunswick for showing evident good taste and judgement in sending a letter of acceptance to One Smart Chica, to wit, lifelongmanic.

She'll do great things. Imagine how stupid you'd have felt had you not accepted her.

Sincerely,
framlingem, CEO.


(I'm so proud of you, darlin'. I know UNB's not your first choice, but frankly, McGill would be idiots to turn you down. If I was in the neighbourhood, dinner and drinks would be on me tonight!)

I have the Smartest Sister In The World, in my completely and utterly unbiased opinion. When she is a famous marine biologist or similar, I shall follow her around and bask in her well-educated glow.

UNB is a wonderful university, am still trying to convince daughter that it is actually better than UofT in many ways, including the fact her father and grandmother went there. Anyway, yes, I know UNB and she is in a fine place there. Hope she accepts going there. Plus it's closer to you!

I don't think she will go to UNB when McGill accepts her; McGill has a program which matches her interests perfectly, and she'd be able to stay on the West Island, which is a place she loves very much.

I can't say I wouldn't like to have her closer to me, but I'd rather she gets her dream. :) Logistics-wise, it takes about the same amount of time for a flight from Deer Lake to Fredericton as it does from Deer Lake to Montreal, so it won't matter much unless I planned to drive, and then it's only nine hours' difference.
