36 more work days!
52 more days total!

So I'm completely applied to UWGB. We'll see if I make it in. I sure do hope so, that would be nice. I've got a few applications out there for different places, so we'll see how that goes. I hope I can find something decent in the GB area, that would be good.

I haven't posted in a while. Oops, sorry about that. A lot has been happening though and I don't know how to describe it. I know I'm crazy, I've come to terms with it.
