I came home from work today and I had good news- I got accepted to University of Tennessee!
It feels good to get an acceptance letter. The bad news is they can't offer me any financial help...so I probably won't be able to go there anyways...but...it's a confidence boost that I got into one place!

Counting my blessings
Last week I got rejected by UW...today I got a rejection letter from Texas...being rejected sucks, but instead of dwelling on this I'm counting my blessings.
My life is wonderful and no letters can change that. My family is wonderful and supportive, I have a wonderful and supportive boyfriend who I love very much, I love Madison and am thoroughly enjoying the winter despite my Florida roots, I have wonderful friends all over the place who love and support me. My coworkers at Tandem are mad I didn't get in which makes me feel good.
I still have 3 more schools to hear from...I'll keep you updated.
Also...I shouldn't feel too disheartened about my rejections because these are the odds I'm up against...
at UW they had 260 applications for 30 spots.
at UT they had 254 applications for 10 spots.
The competition is stiff out there!
