Goodbye Application

Sent out my grad school application today.  A weight off my shoulders for sure.  I hope they love my writing.  I hope they love ME.  I hope they understand how much this means to me and how life changing it will be.  Over the last few years, its been a series of NOs... a giant YES would be most welcome right now. 

On the job front... yeah.. um... total nothingness.  I'm trying not to get depressed about it because I'm not at the point of welfare or panhandling or selling my organs.  But I feel like I have so much to offer and people reject me out of hand because my resume (though formatted beautifully) doesn't have 5-10 solid years of work.  Next time I'll remember to send Life an email and remind it to be kind to me and not throw up obstacles that ruin my work history.  : S

Starting Fresh

I have to get serious about life.  I'm making small strides but its not good enough.  If I'm going to be a successful writer, I have to make time to get my skills to that level.  As it is, I think I have a ways to go.  School doesn't start until late August and in the meantime I need to do my part to work on the parts where I am weakest.   I have to get into student mode quickly.

I started blogging AGAIN in order to put my thoughts into perspective and force myself to work steadily towards my goals.

Wish me luck.
