The Things That Might Happen
Just so you know, I checked and it's all going to be ok. I promise.
After studying extremely hard, sacrificing my weekends and breaks, and balancing many extracurriculars and varsity sports for four years, I got rejected from my dream school about two hours ago. I started crying, came to this blog, and started rereading all of the posts. It was really the only thing I could think to do. I've been following this for a little over a year now, but have never commented. This particular post is the first thing that has given me any sense of "it's going to be okay"-ness tonight. I know that, in a year from now, I'll be having the time of my life at another school, and won't even think about tonight's rejection. I really need to thank you for writing. A lot of the time, the best two minutes of my day are when I wake up early and check this blog before I finish my homework. It really means a lot to me that you write, trust me. So thank you. So much.
This ressurance just made me feel,good. I'm scheduled to go home in 20 days but i wont be abke to until my ID is released. I am still waiting for it. I am almost losing my patience until I read this. Thank you
Thank you.
