The University of Michigan accepted me. I can't even begin to explain how excited I am. It's not just any law school, it's a fairly good law school, and they actually want me. I am not, as I had feared, destined to be a bag lady. Well, that's not true, I could still fail miserably at life, but I think I'll allow myself, for a few moments, to think that everything may actually be okay.
Side note to any of my suitemates who are reading this: I know I've been annoying and angry as all hell at many points last semester, but I think this might make me a more happy and relaxed person, and if not, well, Katie's back in the country so I can begin to take it all out on her again. But I love you guys and thanks for putting up with me.
Happy new year, everyone!
Okay and this may be inappropriate after all my excitement, but everyone should say a prayer or send consoling thoughts to the families of the miners in West Virginia who have had to endure things no one ever should in the last two days. I went to bed at 2 last night and thought they were all alive and I can't express how sad and angry I was to learn they were dead this morning. I cannot even imagine the breadth and depth of emotion those poor people had to go through.
