Busy week ahead.

I start my new job at GPTC on Tuesday.
Friday I have a meeting with the Director of Graduate Studies about my application from grad school
and for my documentary I'm working on to submit to Sundance one day.

It doesn't sound like much, but it's got me kinda freaking out.

Wish me luck, hopefully I'm not a lost cause for grad school.

MIA

So I've been a little MIA for the past couple of weeks.

Things have been picking up and are going well!

I'm officially hired with my new job! I just have some paperwork to fill out then orientation and I'm there!

I met my roomie yesterday, and saw my apartment. Everything looks great and pretty perfect.
It's close to campus, there's tons to do, and it's in a nice neighborhood.

I also finished another essay for an assistantship for grad school.

I'm going to start storyboarding my documentary.

I have a GRE practice test today at 4pm.

Now all I have to do is take the GRE, get published (hopefully), and apply to the program!

Right now is the sitting and waiting game

I think this is the worst part of applying to grad school

Waiting....

Once I get the news on the main thing I'm waiting for, I can submit everything else.
The only problem is.. I have no idea when I'm going to get this yes or no... nor if I'll get the "yes" I'm crossing my fingers for.
