Yesterday I went home for lunch, and as I usually do I checked the mail on my way in. Underneath some dumb bill there was a letter from the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education. The school I decided to apply to on a whim, sort of as practice, not really expecting to get in. The envelope seemed to contain multiple pages, they wouldn't send a multi-page rejection letter, right? My heart was beating really fast; I was afraid to open it. I opened it... and they accepted me! Holy crap! So now I'm making a list of all the things I have to do to get there. School starts in September, so that gives us (Nate and I) around five months to get our shit together. I need to fill out the FAFSA, like yesterday. We'll need to find a place to live, a place to work, etc. We need to start saving every penny. So much is going to change! This is so awesome!
Now that I have a something like this to look forward to, I've decided to make it the theme for this blog. Getting to Penn and then being at Penn. I'll keep you updated on my progress because I know how interested you are.
