Officially

Officially, I am attending the U next year (I even sent out the lovely little card thing today with the confirmation agreement). Both Stanford and Columbia decided they did not want me to attend, making my life considerably easier than I could have imagined. My mother is slightly heartbroken that I will not be at Columbia next year, but I don't think it will take her all that long to get over her grief once she realizes that I'll only be two hours away.

Overall, I am just relieved. I want to go to the U, but having to explain that I turned down Stanford or Columbia was not something that I was looking forward to. So, thanks to both admission boards for deciding I wasn't worth it.

I don't think it occurred to me how much the entire situation had been exhausting me until I arrived home last night after our little Debate get together, and I crashed for ten hours. I know the weather is not helping my mood, so I hope it's sunny tomorrow; otherwise, I am so going tanning. Fake sun is better than no sun at all; I don't care if I get skin cancer.

I saw Crystal on Thursday, and it was very exciting. I recommend Children of Men to everyone; it is simply stunning, my little crush on Clive Owen withstanding. And the debate get together last night was quite fun; I miss the little ones even Tom, who talks more than my brother.

And to make the rest of you happier due to the nasty weather: a wonderful Costa Rica picture.
