Alive; but barely


I survived my mid-term week of 7 midterms; though I'm not sure how.

I forget when it was, but Molly and I went to the Utah state fair.

Mostly it was disappointingly small and overpriced (not that that is unusual at a fair) but still we had fun.

I tried to win the strong man award with the hammer and mallet, but had to suffice with beating a girl.

But I did get a tattoo. (Henna)

Also-- I am applying to grad school.

Honestly, I may not get in anywhere. My GPA is not stellar and I have no research experience. But I'm going to give it my best shot. I'm applying to Marriage, Family and Therapy programs--which would license me to be a Marriage and Family Therapist. Though I do want to keep my options open for post-grad work.

Places I'm looking at:
1. University of Kentucky
2. University of Nevada--Las Vegas
3. University of Alabama
4. North Dakota State University
5. Kansas State University
6. Syracuse University

Places I've also been thinking about:
1. Arizona State University-- (The option open for post-grad work is the only reason ASU is not #1 on my list; the program is not accredited and solely clinical)
2. University of Nebraska-Lincoln
3. University of Maryland
4. University of Florida
5. Utah State University
6. Brigham Young University (But honestly I'm ready to get out of here, but it is the best program in the nation--not that I'd get in.)
