Olen jo kyllästynyt odottamaan.
Not much new in my life.
Went in (finally!) for a counseling appointment to try and figure out how to deal with this depression and overwhelmingness stuff. It went really well, just sitting there and talking with the person (who happened to be the CTC director, so score!) let me figure out that I actually do know lots of ways to handle this already. I'm going to try a few things and then see her again in a couple weeks. I still don't feel 100% okay obviously, but seeing even just a glimmer of hope does wonders.
Lots of new stuff for grad school stuff. (Okay, so I lied about there not being much new. Oops.) University of Minnesota finally got back to me and said they accepted me. The morning after that, the professor that I want to study with e-mailed me and said that the school of music faculty scholarship committee was meeting soon and he gave me his "highest and strongest recommendation". Good news! I'm supposed to find out on or around March 1st. That day's come and gone. I'm trying not to get completely eaten up by anxiety and stress, but it's pretty hard. I really hope they'll get in touch with me next week.
Uh, that's all I've got right now. Maybe I did have less going on than I thought I did.
EDIT: I lied. Has anyone else bought a paid Dreamwidth account? Is it worth it? I let my LJ paid account run out because I haven't really been using LJ like I used to, but I'd be interested in giving it a spin here.
