It's MARCH?!?!
How did it get to be March?

Anyway, Ian came down and it was fun. I couldn't really take him anywhere too exciting, but it was still fun to show him where I live. I also took him to the fun local movie theater + restaurant, the country club (>.<) and a cool book place.

Since then? I came to school. Basically have been living at Ian's.That's about all there is to it outside of grad school and playing lots of video games.

Grad school--rejections. Lots of rejections. 9 rejections, 2 interviews, an interview at a place I never officially applied to (master's program), and 1 "alternate position". I've been on one interview so far. It was really fun, I let mys...

Grad school--rejections. Lots of rejections. 9 rejections, 2 interviews, an interview at a place I never officially applied to (master's program), and 1 "alternate position". I've been on one interview so far. It was really fun, I let myself really like the program--but it looks like I will not be offered a spot. Oh well. The other two programs that I got interviews with make me...slightly unsettled, but we'll see what happens. My mom keeps telling me that everything happens for a reason and that I must, therefore, potentially, be meant to do something else--like be with Ian for longer, she teases.

Video games--I finally got Batman: Arkham City to work again!! Thank goodness. I played with a bit, then decided--nope, time to replay Mass Effect series. I still haven't finished my replay of the first game...and I'm playing ME3. I think I'll only play it for a bit then restart once I've replayed 1&2 where I want it to be...because I cheated on Liara in 2, and lost 1 man. It upsets me. Also, I've gotten kind of slowed because I'm playing SWTOR. My computer can't handle it (stupid graphics card), so I play on Ian's computer while he's at work. I played on his account until level 18, then it was my birthday and I got my own copy of the game and my own account. I'm now a level 24. Pretty damn excited about that.

Last night, I got ME3 at midnight and spent the first night in my own place in several weeks--can't say I miss that, but I didn't really have a choice. :/ Ian's now on a more regular schedule thanks to being a temporary off-crew instructor. Unfortunately, that means if I have something schedules past 10, I pretty much have to sleep at my place even though I've basically been living at his.

On the positive side, I've started exercising...a bit. Sporadically, but I'm planning on pursuing yoga more seriously and maybe picking up an exercise regiment as a sort of back up plan for my future--law enforcement. Why is this my back up plan? I really can't articulate it properly...though I can say what they do on "Criminal Minds" is something I've wanted to do since I was in grade schools (aka--before "Criminal Minds"). But who knows...

How're you all? Are you on SWTOR? If so--give me your name!!! We should play together!!! [/desperation for playmates]

ALSO--programming is awesome. So glad I'm taking that class!
