Writing scholarship essays suck.

Kyle, can I email you my drafts tomorrow instead of tonight? My brain is done.

Just be careful you don't end up being courted by a school who wants you to make their numbers look nice. I had that happen to me last year.

Apparently with me he could check the boxes female, minority, refugee, mutant and a few others.

You also have the big 'advantage' of having a kind of less scary powers. That way they can look progressive without risking their student being hit by lasers or something.

Wait - I have to tell them I'm a mutant!?

No, and they can't make you. But you'll probably tick some of their little boxes anyway, being blind and a scholarship kid.

Oh, good. I assumed they'd know since I went to Xavier's, but I don't want to bring it up and invite questions and all that unless I have to.

Powers or not, I'm still blind and I still need accommodation in my classes and I don't want to risk that.

Your powers aren't dangerous by any stretch of imagination, not even to yourself except the migraines, so there's no reason they need to know.

migraines suck though. I'm so glad they are pretty much under control.
