My papa applied to go to a ton of different colleges, and got into a lot of
them. Grandma says that he filled out more applications than most students
do. She laughed when she talked about how much money that they must have
spent to send in all of those applications. Did you know that just asking to
go to a college costs money? Maybe I won’t go to Harvard. It’s probably
really expensive just to apply! As I was saying, grandma can’t remember why
he did it for so many of them, but she thought maybe he was playing the
odds, but I’m not sure what that means. He only went to visit a few of them,
mostly to the ones in the states that he had already been to, but it was the
first time that he went to Arizona. He didn’t end up going to school there,
so no one can remember which school it was, but everybody thinks that he
only chose it because it was on the way to California, which was where he
really wanted to go. He wasn’t going to San Diego for a college, though. On
the next slide, I’ll tell you why he was there instead, but apparently, he
didn’t really care about touring the college. It was just an excuse to drive
south. The capital of Arizona is a phoenix, which my dad says is his
favorite mythical animal. I think it’s pretty cool too.
