Yes I wrote an entrance essay about Jim Henson

[MrsPepper]

So I'm applying for some post-grad programs, one of which has a fairly late deadline and I decided to fill out the application this afternoon and mail it off. This particular program relates to art history, museums, community programming, etc. And guess what is the essay question? "Describe your collection of ... "

Well. They just didn't know what they were getting into. I kept it short and focused on how I collect Henson art books, and connected it to how Jim pioneered early media and influenced culture, therefore relating it to some of the themes that reoccurred during the questionnaire portion. I'm also fairly confident that I kept my fangirling to a minimum; however, I couldn't resist using the words "great" and "legend" at least once.

In conclusion, I am awesome.
