Yep.

Me: Hello?
The Professor: Hi! So, um, you haven't committed to anywhere else, have you?
Me: Nope.
P: So you're still interested in NYU? Because we have to send our candidates to the admissions office next week, and I was just, uh, curious.
Me: O.O I'm still interested.
P: Let me tell you about the funding that we offer, by the way.
Me: O.O
O.O
Okay!
P: And now I'll go on about our department for twenty minutes. Because, see, we're much better than any of the other places you applied to, and I want to be very sure that you get that message. You totally want to come here, trust me. I will say anything to make you come here.
Me: Sounds good!
P: If you have any questions, any thing at all, email me. Or call me. Here, have my personal cellphone number, in fact!
Me: Got it.

The End

Oh god, NYU totally wants to give me a fellowship.



Also, hey: I went to the movies last night instead of writing my paper (alright, I wrote it eventually. Mostly this morning), and saw Curious George. It is now confirmed- baby monkeys being adopted by boring people are always indescribably cute.
