Well low and behold, I prayed and hoped for word on scholarship and today I get a postcard informing me that the Scholarship Committee has reviewed my application and I should be getting word within the next month or so.

Boy, they kind of make this process a tedious one don’t they? Almost like hoping and praying and waiting. haha Maybe it’s just me. I’ve been wanting to contact them regarding a loan anyway. I should do that tonight. I was beginning to worry that they forgot that I applied in the first place. I’m glad they have this process to inform me of my progress in getting in.

What I didn’t anticipate was this constant waiting and anxiety that comes with the anticipation. I’m trying to hold my composure as much as I can with family, friends, and colleagues. I’ve told a select few of my progress only because I don’t want to make a big deal of it. I mean, what if I decide that I don’t want to go back to school after all? What then? I would have officially announced shit that didn’t have to happen in the first place.

Patience is a virtue, I guess. Yada yada yada…
