Guys, I'm going to college!


I forgot to mention in my post yesterday that I was accepted to the University of Buffalo. (: I better start working on my flab so that I'm able to be in good shape for women's hockey next year when I go! Oh, and of course, I better keep my grades up now so that I look good in transitioning into the college lifestyle. Goodness, I can't believe that on the 17th, I'll be two months away from my 18th birthday. Time has flown by so fast.

In Sabreland news, Craigory is having some achy shoulder problems and said he won't be able to play for at least two weeks. Then again, when he had knee surgery he was back in no time, so...maybe it'll be the same thing with this? I can only hope. I love seeing his leadership out on the ice for the boys. Don't be gone too long, Rivs!

Thomas was also named the third star of the week in the NHL, and he made the Hot List on NHL.com. It's too bad I can't steal the picture from the site because my Print Screen button is being ridiculously stupid right now. *glares at keyboard* Thank you so much.

Congrats on going to UB! I also went there but that was 18 years ago... so I wouldn't be of much help with logistics. You will love it there though.

Thank you both!

Aw, you guys are quite adorable.

Mary said...

Congrats! I loved getting the acceptance letters in the mail.

And do you mean this picture?

Shelby said...

Thanks Mary! I knew right away it was a letter because my friends said that UB sent theirs in a big envelope...I was so happy to get accepted, even though we all had a feeling I would get in anyways. It still feels good!

And that's not the picture. ): On the main part of the site, and the ticker thing flips...it has a picture of Vanek and underneath it says 'Buffalo Soldier' for the Hot List tab of the ticker. I don't know if it's still on there.

Mary said...

Even if you know, it's still so exciting! :)

Got it... THIS one, hahah.

Shelby said...

Would you believe...it's not that one either? lol

And I just checked on the website and they don't even have it on the ticker thing anymore. D; Oh well. I'm sure they'll use it again sometime, haha. But thank you for trying! (I still saved the pictures you got anyways. :P)

Mary said...

stupid NHL, hahah. No problem though! :)

Are you going to UB? Have you applied anywhere else that you're waiting on hearing from? (does that make sense, sounds strange?!) My daughter is your age and is eagerly awaiting acceptance letters. My son goes to UB. Isn't it great to be done with all those applications?

Katie said...

Congrats on getting accepted, Shelby! UB is a great school. I remember the good old days of waiting for those envelopes...for once, someone is making me feel old instead of the other way around (lol)

Shelby said...

Are you going to UB?

Yes, that's the college I wanted to go to. :D I decided to do the 'Early Decision' application, which tells UB that if they accept me, then I'm going to go there for sure. I didn't even bother to apply to any other school. It sure does feel good that this is all over with though.

Congrats on getting accepted, Shelby!

Thanks Katie!
Aww, and I'm sorry that I'm making you feel old, haha.
