Last Wednesday, March 27, I found out I was accepted to Columbia University! I was talking to my Mom on the phone and checking my email when I got the email saying that my acceptance decision was ready to be viewed online. It felt like it took me 10 years to access my account but finally I saw the letter that said I had been accepted! I started screaming and crying and could hardly tell my Mom that I had gotten in. It was so exciting! I then called Bill and everyone I know to tell them the great news!

So, now in a mere three months we will be moving to New York City! We have a lot to do in a short time like finding affordable housing in a safe neighborhood, Bill finding a job, orientation, and selling everything we won’t have room for like my car! We are really jazzed about moving and fulfilling some of our dreams!
