Hooville


Can I just say how much I love Charlottesville/UVA ?? I went up to Charlottesville last Friday to meet my roommates next year, Heather and Molly, for lunch. We walked around the campus and ate @ Bodo's Bagels, which if you don't already know is kind of a big deal in Cville. The campus is just so pretty and old and I love it. I am applying to the education school there and just being there on the campus made me want it even more. My roommate Heather is also applying to the law school there, so we kept seeing stuff and saying "oh when we go here" haha. Poor Molly is a year younger so she was like "What about me!?!?!" haha. Well hopefully everything will work out for us.

I really didn't explain but UVA has been a dream of mine ever since I was little. My Dad was a big UVA fan and rubbed that off onto me. I didn't get in after high school which was a very big disappointment because I had all these big plans of managing football and doing the 5 Year Bachelors to Masters in Teaching program there. I guess that was not God's plan for me because two years later here I am about to enter Junior year at CNU, and even my plan at CNU changed. I wanted to do the 5 year program here, but it became too big a load so I decided to apply to grad schools. Maybe I was supposed to end up at UVA, but this way. I just have to work really really hard for the next two years and study for my GREs and kick butt, and maybe things will fall into place. Did I mention that I bought like 3 study books and flashcards for the GRE? I have already started studying vocab, which is a good thing because when I cracked the book open there were some words I had no idea even know where to guess.

I leave on Friday for Windy Gap on Friday and I am soooo excited!!
