Paper Hearts and Teabags

"Aren't we all like teabags? We don't know our own strengths till we're in hot water."

-Emily Gao

Our hearts are like paper. Used all the time. Its value is overlooked. Fragile. Mistakenly viewed as simple. Each person who is able to see the truth in that heart leaves behind a permanent wrinkle. Each person given the power to hold that heart in his or her hand and do whatever he or she pleases with it can either keep it in its original condition, rip it, tear it in two, or write a beautiful, pure, and colorful story on it.

So I asked Mr. Spilkin for a letter of rec for my application to the UCSD Medical Scholars Program.

And he replies with this:

“Come on by so we can talk, this shouldn’t be a problem but I have a
few questons first.

Thanks,
Mr.S”

What does that even mean? Am I in trouble or something? Why can’t he ask the questions over email? o.o
