I got in

So, I've been sitting at home for over a week with a stomach bug that would not go away. I've been to three doctors, and the ER. I've also missed about nine days of school, including tests and labs that require research papers to make up. So, lets just say it's been a pretty crappy week. Then, today, I get a phone call from the UGA vet school with the news that I got accepted on early admission!

Let me say, even though I still feel like crap, that news is something that certainly cheers a person up. All these years of working my ass off, of having road block after road block, of thinking I would never make it...it's finally paid off. I made it. I may have gotten a GED. I may have had to take night classes. I may have taken way longer than many other people to make it through school, but I made it.

Even more amazing, early admission is only offered to the top ten percent of applicants. I went from the girl who dropped out of high school to the top ten percent of applicants. I am just so ecstatic right now. I can't stop crying from the overwhelming joy of it all. Wow. So, yeah, wow.

Congratulations! I am so happy for you!

(Of course you were in the top 10%, what do you have, like a 3.98?)
