It can't be my fault that seemingly every college in America has grabbed hold of my email address and will not let go no matter how much I beg. I should really email them all back and say that they have the wrong girl, I'm just a delinquent who has terrible grades and beats up people.
That probably wouldn't stop them though, what with their relentless search to find "the right Madeline".
And that's the most annoying thing. They refer to me as "Madeline". The only people who call me that are my teachers when they go through their class list on the first day, my father when I've done something wrong, and my friends when they want to make fun of me. As you can see I feel personally attacked when a college or university doesn't take the time to figure out my nickname. Since they care so much about me and want to "Give me a competitive edge" and "Design an education plan for me" you would think that my feelings would be a higher priority.
I do intend to attend college, don't get me wrong. I just don't like getting badgered with emails that at one point may have made me feel special (lies) or that I was being let in on a secret, but now I have seen through their thinly veiled attempts at flattery and will make my own college decisions far away from my now corrupt Inbox.
Yeah, I've definitely won this battle.
