still waiting for good news

Well, now it is August... the heat has finally kicked in, sun is shining, exams are looming.  I write this in the 'sauna' that is my office - the exterior of the house is getting painted right now, so all windows are shut... I've got 2 fans pointed at me, so I'm not (yet) having a total melt down... LOL!

So I was able to defer my acceptance for the College of Law until September 2012, so if I don't get into any school in Canada, I now have a year to decide if I want to immigrate to the UK.  Nice to maintain the backup option, even if it means I'd be another year 'delayed' getting going with the career.

Had a rejection from Western (in London, ON) the same day as I told London (UK) to go away... thought that was pretty funny. Western was nice, they said that I was fully qualified for their program, they just didn't have spots this year.

UVic says that their fall semester is completely full, but they will still consider me for a January start... so still keeping my fingers crossed for that, but if a school back east takes me for a September start, I'll go for it there (obviously).

Still waiting to hear back from 5 schools (so 50%).  Hopefully I'll hear soon - so much to set up if I do have to relocate back east for a year or so!!!

Exams start in 10 days.  Not enjoying preparing for them - feel overwhelmed and frustrated.  It is especially hard to stay motivated in this glorious sunshine!

anyway, back to the books.
