easier than I expected.

Wow. Talk about a crazy turn of events. While I was sitting in the waiting room for the meeting Wednesday morning at the school in Virginia, I received an email from the school that had pretty much filled the seats for the incoming class. This was the school I really wanted to go to because of the program length and distance to Columbia-- where I live now and where my boyfriend will be living. They had one opening and offered it to me. As soon as my meeting was over with the Graduate Director in Virginia, I got in the car and drove 8 hours to the school. So I have come to my decision with much ease. In the fall, I will be attending Western Carolina University nestled in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina.
