First application submitted (!!!)
Just popping in on this gorgeous weekend to say that I submitted my first grad school application today. Very exciting!! : ) I guess there was a part of me that didn’t think I would actually go through with it, that this was just some crazy idea that I came up with to distract myself from life’s aggravations, that I’d just flake out in the end and never actually apply. Well, let me tell ya, it felt SO good to click “submit” on that bad boy (scary as hell, but still good). Three more to go, although I have to wait for my boss to get his recommendation letter in before I can submit those. Other than the letter, they’re all ready to go. I *think* this is really happening. This is so freaking exciting, you have no idea. Next on the agenda: going out for sushi with a friend tonight. I think consumption of raw fish is an appropriate celebration for this momentous occasion, no? : )
Congratulations!

You don’t need to go that far, but I hope you enjoyed the sushi
S – Thanks! I’ve never tried fish brains, but the sushi over the weekend was delicious. But hey, if eating fish brains brings you good luck in the new year, I’m willing to try them. : )
