I feel like I should quickly update on my life. The graduate schools have been writing me back. Although since I’ve gotten 2 rejections, 3 waiting lists, and 1 unknown… there is a possibly spiritual side to this whole ordeal that is very close to freaking me out.
You know how when you get rejected or aren’t the “best of the best” you feel like you could give up or SHOULD lose hope? Well, I haven’t yet and usually I’d be the type to be safe and assume the worst. I joke that I naively am believing I can still make it. Logic would say … “Eh, not this time around.” But something else keeps telling me it’s meant to be.
When I explained my concerns about not being accepted to a friend she said, “Maybe it’s not meant to be.” To which I referred to that odd coincidence story that I’ll post the link to so I don’t have to rewrite.

It’s the shooting star story.
Later that day after my friend made me question if maybe it was just a meaningless coincidence, I ended up buying the book, “The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire.” Which … while reading on the airplane, the first page and 1/2 was talking about shooting stars and coincidences and miracles and opening your eyes to them.
SO>>> I DUNNO? If I am really being guided in a direction that’s so meant to be for me, I wish it was this supportive and easy in other areas of my life. Haha. However, if this is true I’m so thankful for it guiding me.
I called one of the major schools to check about my application status today. They once again said, RECORD HIGH NUMBERS OF APPLICANTS… but your application has a high rating. :/ So wait-listed again and again. One of the schools I talked to today said they got 313 applicants and only 32 will make it in this semester. That’s why I logically doubt myself.
LETS SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
Nothing else new. I’m kinda remembering my dreams more.
I had a feeling my ex bf was gonna contact me cuz I felt the feeling of acceptance and kindness in the air related to him. Sure enough he came around trying to talk things out, but in a flirty non-sincere, non-accepting of responsibility type of way. When I told him to stop texting me at like 3am (he has a gf that hates me for him doing this), he didnt respond and hasn’t talked to me since… and is back to refusing to talk to me. Temper tantrum I guess?
5 more weeks of school and I’m graduated!
