The New Adventures of...
Thrilling tales of mild discomfort and general complacence

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Never officially stated it but yes I am in fact DONE with all the pressing applications for law school.

Technically, I have two more to send out, but they need some bullshit called a Dean's Certification before I can send in my stuff. Good news is that they're not due for a month, so there.

Everything got in on time as well. UNC Chapel Hill was even nice enough to send me a little email to tell me everything was okay. How about that Southern Hospitality, eh?

It was pretty stressful while I was doing it, but now that it's over I can't tell you how relieved I am. Sure, these feelings of relief will only last about a month or two until i have to start thinking about if I got accepted anywhere. But for now, I'm okay. Good, in fact!

I've got the ball-buster part of my cardigan done, but at a price. Did you know that bamboo splinters are amongst the most painful you can get. That's because they absorb moisture from your hands and expand, increasing the pain. I know this, because the top of one of my needles shattered from overuse and I got a nice little chunk in my thumb. That *sucked*. Plus I had to get new size 7s. Balls. Anywhoo, I'm moving along pretty quickly on the rest.

And that's all for now. I'm back to being really boring.

Hooray being (mostly) done with law school apps! :)

Boo splinters, though. I can't believe you actually sustained a knitting injury. That is one for the books.
