Into College!

My life has changed immensely since my last blog post, which was written forever ago. That can be attributed to managing the swim team, one of the best decisions I have ever made, but that's not to what I am referring. At 8:00pm last night, I found out that I was accepted into my DREAM SCHOOL early decision. In the twenty some hours since I have heard, there has been so much love and congratulations thrown my way and I am sooo overwhelmed and grateful by it.

The world of applying to college has been so insane and has gone by so quickly (the waiting period, however, did not). I officially made my decision to apply early decision to college this summer, but in my heart I knew I wanted to go to this school for well over a year.

Looking back on my blog posts about visiting colleges is really strange, because I know I would have loved my college experience at any one of these schools. I just found the perfect school for me, and I am so excited to be a student there for the next four years of my life.

I am so happy that I applied early decision and that I do not have to fill out anymore applications (2 was more than enough). I hear back from SMU, where I applied early action, within the next few days. (Even though I wouldn't be able to attend, because now I am bound to attend my ED school!) I am loving seeing all of the facebook posts about my friends getting into the colleges of their dreams, as well.

Some advice that was shared with me over the past week continuously is that everything happens for a reason. You will end up at the school for you, and if you don't get into you "dream school"  life will deliver you with another, better option.

SOOO HAPPY RIGHT NOW
