Well, I received a rejection letter finally! Well, it is the third this year. It was VERY impersonal. I truly do appreciate the photocopy of a signature from the dean of admissions.
A part of me is disappointed, but I knew that this was coming. However, I have a better way to attain my post bacc. studies without being 60k in debt, albeit it will be informal and will subject me to pride breakdown. Now I will focus on safety net schools.
To be honest with you, I am embarrassed that at 25 I haven’t truly accomplished anything. But at the same time, I have.
Right now, I am feeling a bit complacent but this soon will pass. Now I have to work extra hard to prove to myself, to others, to schools that I am more than capable of the challenges that I will soon face.
Thankfully, I have a great circle of family and friends that are supportive. And thanks to Martin for coming by just to give me a hug when I truly needed it.
It’s those little things I remember about friendships that mean the world to me — a simple hug, a phone call, or a sweet e-mail. My husband, for example, always sends me text messages in the morning
. Despite the distance, it’s his little acts of loves that touch me in big ways… I am easy to please honestly.
All the misfortune I have been having is balanced with a great group of support.
I honestly wish I had this support system long before today, but things do happen for a reason and I am learning fairly quickly.
