news...
Today I was rejected from Illinois and Georgia. While my status at Delaware is still pending, I am going to assume it will be a rejection as well. I know I've said (constantly) that it was more likely I would be rejected than accepted... it still sucks.
Weasel called to tell me about it at work. I was already having a bad day, and really being stuck on an 8 hour shift (on 5 hours of sleep, did I mentioned I closed on Sunday and opened on Monday?) didn't help.
So yeah I'm bummed - I'm beyond disappointed. I don't need sympathy, just a little recognition that I'm not going to be my normal chipper self (and yes you can stop laughing at me relating to chipper). And yes, it is ok for you all to be happy we are not leaving California this year (except Rachel, who can be sad that I won't be closer to her). I'm going to re-apply next year - I'll look at some other schools, and re-think my applications. Maybe a different writing sample, maybe I'll write something a little more traditional (it's been awhile since I did that).
Since I should be working on job applications, that is all.
