"Admitted"

Dear Julia,

Congratulations! We are pleased to offer you admission to Brigham Young University-Idaho. We look forward to having you on campus and feel that you will be an asset to this university.

Sincerely,
Admissions Committee
Brigham Young University-Idaho Admissions Office


Yippie! I've waited over eighteen years for this! Okay, well, maybe not in the same sense, I've really only been waiting for my acceptance about two months, but in the literal sense (as in waiting to be up there, getting a place to stay, going to classes, etc.) I have been waiting much longer. Anyway, it probably doesn't make much sense, but that's okay. At least I know what I'm talking about. ;)

So, I am WAY excited! I could hardly contain myself when I got the email. I called my Dad and Mom and told them. I had to restrain myself from not calling literally everyone on my Contact List. No, really. I was THAT excited! I did it! I got accepted! AHHH!!!!!!

Oh, by the way: I got a letter in the mail the other day, I was so excited. I was having a crummy day, to put it lightly, and I was wishing that I would have something to cheer me up. And yes, finding out my blood type would be something to cheer me up. Isn't that funny? Well, my blood is O+. That means I can give give blood to O+, A+, B+, and AB+ (so pretty much all the +'s) But then that means that I can only receive blood from O+ and O- (only the O's). Yeah, so if you're any of those, than we could help each other out! Blood Buddies! :)

Oh, and did you know that out of 100 donors, only 38 of them are O+? And RH+ is the most common (84/100) and AB- is the rarest (1/100). So yeah, just a little bit of useless information for ya...

Not useless, I LOVE blood typing. Welcome to the ranks of O+!

Congrats on your acceptance to the Y! When do you come out then? Fall, spring?

I agree with you Julia, finding out my blood type would be something to be excited about. I should know though, cause I've given blood before, but they never told me...it kinda stunk...and then the next blood drive at our school got canceled, so I still don't know...maybe someday I will :)

I'm O-, which means I can only recieve O-. But I everyone wants my blood. So THAT's why everyone likes me!

I just had the weirdest thought! Does your blood type make a difference to vampires? I mean, would a vampire be more likely to suck your blood if you AB+ or O- or would it matter at all? Just wondering...
