Did you spend hours of your youth as Link, living out most of your daily interactions in the world of The Legend Of Zelda? Good news! You’re now an adult that shit is totally still acceptable! Oh and you could also earn a college scholarship because of that infatuation.
Via Boing Boing
The annual award is offered by the fan site Hidden Triforce, which requires entrants to either be current college students or graduating seniors headed for higher education. In order to qualify, you have to write a 500-2000 word essay about “a time when you have displayed an exceptional amount of courage or wisdom,” presumably the same amount that Link displays in the endless purgatory of puzzle solving, ocarina playing and Ganon battling that is his life.
The scholarship is only $500 bucks, which will probably cover your books for a year or a bus ticket back home to tell your parents to stick it for all those years for busting your balls about video games. You should show up dressed as Link. Really twist the knives in their hearts.
