I have gotten to the point now with my Admissions that I can no longer do any thing more. I just have to wait for whatever transcripts I have outstanding to come in and the official letter of acceptance and then I am good to go. I decided to live in the dorms, so, those of you who have done the dorm thing, if you have any suggestions for me let me know, though I imagine it can't be much different from barracks life. I have also, since it was a free application, and only 1000 or so more to get a loan for, applied for Summer housing as well. This way I will be in Portland and be able to get a job for the summer and if I am lucky it will be a job I can keep while in school, (though if I can pull off school and no job mores the better!) I figure if they acept me, I will take the summer housing, and if not, then I will continue to work up here (and take classes so as to keep my GI Bill). I just have to be that one word that I hate, the word that even though I have a lot of it, I don't have it at times like this... patience. I hate having to show this. Having it is one thing, but having to show it is something else entirely. And so here I wait, preparing to move to a city where yet again I only know one person, but for a change of pace, I am smitten with someone who will be going to the same school as me, but, alas, as fortune would have it, she has already "Friended" me, no romance for me, but a good friend I hope! I tell ya though, there are days where I really do wish that the girl I currently like, would like me back. And my friends, this is one of those days! And so, my ramble that will be minimally read is winding to a close, but with it, I offer an invitation for any of you to visit me in Portland once I arrive, your company will always be appreciated!
I end this now.
