Finally actually read through everything and congrats to everyone who got scholly's at Vandy! And those who got acceptances! The first acceptance is an intense experience.

As someone else said, it's looking like quite a fine Monday in here.

Haha Pretty Eyes, you always keep me giggling. Thank you! I'm so grateful for the financial aid awards I've received lately. Just last week I came to terms with the possibility of being in debt for a long time, but it's great to know that that doesn't have to happen. God has blessed me immensely this cycle.

So apparently my softs were a little better than I thought. NYU called me yesterday saying how much they loved the work I've done with the Mental health community and that it was a major contributor to my app. So I say all that to say, softs matter, folks!

Softs definitely matter, wouldn't have gotten into the two T-14's without softs.

Ugh. And that fact that every black person ITT, and other minorities as well, have probably heard variations of ALL of theses 93048390 times.
