I have been out of full-time school for one year now. It was a year ago to the day that I went to see 17 again instead of attending my graduation. That's right, 17 again. I think that watching a movie about a boy who gets to be 17 again (hence the name) was better than going to my own graduation. Probably not one of the better decisions of my life, but I'm okay with it.
Today I was accepted into the MBA program at the U of U. I was very excited to find out because I didn't think I would hear back for a few more weeks. I was actually calling to see if my transcript had arrived and when I called the lady asked my name so she could look me up on the system. I said that I needed to apply to the Master's in Finance program and was wondering if I had done everything. She said, "well it says here that you have been accepted into the MBA program". I couldn't believe it. She dropped the news like it was no big deal and I was caught way off guard. To put it simply, my journey to get into this program has been crazy. I've had to leave work and drive to the U in the middle of the day, I've had to pay more fees than I thought possible, I've had more frustrations than I thought possible, but today a nice young lady informed me that my efforts were not in vain. So stoked!
