Special announcement

No, I'm not pregnant. :P Admit it, that was your first thought. :D (well, except for those of you who know what I'm talking about.) Aaaanyway, I know I haven't talked about this stuff much here, but I applied to school last Fall, after finally figuring out what I want to be when I grow up. My job has been causing me nothing but grief and stress since I went back last September, so when I found this school that had the exact education that I was looking for, I sent in an application. And then I waited. And waited. And waited some more.

The last day for applications went by, so I waited some more. And then I sent the school an e-mail asking when I could possibly wait to hear something. To which they replied that the application time didn't end until sometime in December. Sooo, I waited yet some more. And then I got the letter I was waiting for, I got called i for an interview. It was on Friday a week ago. They had a second round on interviews last week, so I've been very anxious since then, because I figured I'd find out this week if I get in or not.

Luckily for me, I didn't have to wait for very long, as I got a very pleasant call today, as they called me from school to tell me that I GOT IN!! Whee! Wahoo! Yippee! Yay! I honestly can't say how thrilled I am! (my boss was less thrilled when I told him, and he might actually end up firing me. But who cares, I've hated that job for a long time now.) This is such a relief and I'm too happy for words. :) Oh, and in case anybody wonders, I'm going to be a seamstress when I grow up. Wheeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

  2. All right! I think it's great when people take the plunge, the big jump away from the job they hate (but the one they've had forever so it's sort of comfortable) and go for something they love. I am just bubbling over for you!!!
