Accepted

I was FINALLY accepted to graduate school at the last minute due to a mix up in the admissions department. They lost my transcripts because my last name is different now. When I got divorced, I went back to my maiden name and all of my transcripts were in my married name. I put my former name on all the forms where it asked for former names, but oh well. The point is, I'm accepted!

I was not accepted in time to get financial aid, so I will only be taking one class this first summer session as I am not independently wealthy. Taking only one class is apparently a good thing because by the time I was able to register there was only one available class and it was Education Law. I have been in touch with the professor and he said I couldn't have chosen a more difficult class to start with. Oh joy! Then he said, "but let's not turn back now." So on I go I suppose. I have a feeling this is going to be a bumpy ride, but it's on the road I must take. I know I can do this. I hope I can do this. Dear Lord, please help me get through this.

Giant Tortoise

It's the end of school and summer is near! Thank you Lord! I need summer for my sanity. Things just are not moving along as quickly as I'd like though. I don't have enough time at work, but everything else is going so slowly.

I'm still waiting to hear if I got into grad school. The guy I was talking on the phone to seems to have put me in the friend zone before we even met. I'm just in such a blah mood lately. I need a vacation, just a chance to disappear for a while and relax. I put entirely too much pressure on myself about finding a relationship.

The other day I was talking to a single guy friend. I asked him how his love life was and he said it was pretty slow. He asked how mine was going. I said, "You know that giant tortoise that lives to be like a century old? That slow."
