the big application
today i picked up an application that will pretty much change my life depending on if it goes well or if it goes to, well i dont really wanna think about that. this application has nothing to do with an after school job, which i need, or a summer camp in wautoma. its my application to Martin Luther College and can be gotten easliy from the mlc website. granted the admissions standards (yes there are some) are not high but even so, the possibilty of rejection does exist. in looking at it, much of what the application says is quite basic. it mentions the courses needed for acceptance and asks me to name such things as where i went to high school, grade school, my act score, my marital status and other such random data that colleges are interested in. unlike other colleges though, its asks if i attend a wels church and if i inted on serving in the wisconsin evangelical lutheran synod, which Lord willing one day i will. After the questions i myself have to answer questions that i find much more intimidating appear. i need a reccomendation from my advisor or principle and from my pastor. the reccomendation form is included on the application so i know that someone from kettle (scary thought, it could be mr deibert) is going to rate my academic motivation, christian conduct, emotional stability, dependability, repution among peers and faculty, fitness for ministry, and so much more. my pastor will also talk about my emotional stability and aptitude for teaching as well as other things but this doesnt concern me as much because the person i am at church is not nearly as sinful as the me that attends kettle moraine lutheran high school. for this i am not proud but it is a fact. finally sending in this application will cost me 25 dollars.

Schleef, you'll do great. My old 6-8th grade teacher get it and he doens't have much emotional stability at all. He's been trying to quit smoking for years and tooks it out on us kids. Why do you think I'm such a ruined child?
