I won the M*ses C*it Tyl*r prize for best undergraduate or graduate essay in the fields of American history, literature, or folklore!
Well, I was really pleased and proud until two of my friends asked if it was a C*rn*ll prize, or . . . . Okay, fine, it's only a C*rn*ll prize and not a national competition or anything like that. I was still really happy, okay, sorry it's not good enough for you. Whatever.
hahaha! Like you I would take any prize as a morale booster and be happy :-)

ReplyDeletewhat's with the **?
i put *** in the title of the prize (or names, etc) so that my blog doesn't show up when people google a certain phrase or name.
ReplyDeletei've already set my settings so that my blog is not searchable (i think that means it won't pop up on google) but i'm just extra paranoid!!!
