Subject: College Interview in 2 hours

The Universe demands to be noticed, to be seen, and dutifully noted.

What use all those incredible firework dimensions if no eye fixes and reflects, no brain takes notes, no heart moves with passion at the display?

NASA answers the silent cry of the Cosmos for recognition.

NASA is the witness and we fellow witnesses to the endless deeps.

So I'm having an college interview in the next 2 hours sitting in a hotel room in Philadelphia at 2 a.m. skyping my interviewer halfway around the world in Zimbabwe on the purported end of the world.

This might not be the best idea, but ...

Any pointers on what to do?

The world is going to end today, so it doesn't matter.

Why is he/she in Zimbabwe?

Ask if their currency is still laughably hyper-inflated.

I'm an Anarchist. I don't need a government to be a good person, but I'm glad it's here because some of you clearly do.

Research current events in Zimbabwe.

She's traveling there with her kids - I only got assigned to her because all the other ones weren't able to see me.

I'm staying at a Holiday Inn at Carney's Point - we intended to drive from New York to Washington but couldn't make it.

True that. It's terrible out. Storming all night.

Good luck on your interview and stay safe here in Philly

Tell them Mugabe is da best. And you own a whore house. And hyperinflation is the best thing to happen since sliced bread.

@spaboolly

Just try to relax. Answer questions clearly and truthfully. Don't just tell the interviewer what you think she wants to hear. Try not to give overly cliche answers if you can avoid it. I'm not sure exactly what you're interviewing for (admission, scholarship, etc) but the point of any interview is generally to get a better idea of who the candidate is as a person. Think about your goals, what you've already learned in life and how it can help you, and what makes you who you are.

I know it's a pretty general answer, but I hope it helps a little. Good luck!
