Last semester at ND minus one week.

So I'm stalking the mailroom constantly now. This is pathetic. I can't believe how hard it is to wait for a stupid decision letter to come. I think it's because in high school I didn't really wait to hear from ND because I heard before Christmas, and since I got in there early, I didn't care about anything else afterwards. Now I have the potential to be in this limbo until April, and quite frankly, it's no piece of cake.

So we have ND, U of H, and SMU on board. I neeeeeed to hear from Columbia. I don't care about Penn as much, but I really really really need to hear from Columbia. If I didn't get into Columbia, I'm going to be mad. Not because it's my dream school, but because they gave me a fee waiver and made it free to apply; they told me that I seemed highly qualified and should go to their school. So if they did all of that and I end up not getting in, that just sucks. I would never have applied in the first place without that waiver. Soooo we'll see.

I am still in awe that it's been four years since I graduated from high school. Law school and ND graduation seemed so far away. I had no idea where my life was really heading; it was all a mystery. And now I have to make decisions completely on my own, which is something I've never really done before. This is nervewracking.
