I got accepted into UPenn! I can’t believe it. And it was in a thin envelope too. lol. I don’t know what I’m going to do now, I was sure I wouldn’t get in anywhere, I would just work for a year and hope that I could get in next year. It’s supposedly about $42,000 to go, and unless they give me a nice assistantship I don’t think it will be financially feasible, but hey, a girl can dream. It sure looks nice.
I kept meaning to remark on this earlier, but I couldn’t get on.
Jack Buck, a famous and beloved radio announcer for the St. Louis Cardinals baseball team, died last week. And Darryl Kile, a very good pitcher for the Cards, died on saturday. So you can imagine that it’s been a little depressing in this town lately.
But life moves on, and cells grow, hopefully as they should now that we’ve discovered that I was putting the totally wrong amount of a substance into the media. Hopefully I won’t be so bored, and won’t make so many mistakes. And hopefully if I do end up going to school this fall I can still be around for the DMB concert on my birthday. It sure would suck to miss the concert once I finally can see it, and can’t return the tix, and there’s that little thing that I’d rather not move in on my birthday….
sigh. I really miss ethernet. It’s almost worth it to go back to school just for that. lol.

Holy flaming bat-balls, Batman, I got accepted into University of Pennsylvania! From the “Harvard of the Midwest” to an Ivy League school!
I don’t know if I’m going to go, or even if it will be financially feasible to go (they were singing a tune of about $42,000 for last years tuition and board and expenses) but it sure is nice that not everyone thinks that I have sucky grades.
Just thought I’d share.
I love your quizzes Jen 🙂
MUSE
Known for your creative powers, you Muses are the poets and musicians of life, the patrons of the fine arts. It’s funny, though — even with your inspirational prowess, you’re probably not the type to boast about your guitar-strumming skills, or your latest published book of verse.
While it’s great when people flock to you for ideas, there probably is a part of you that prefers to blend in sometimes — whether dressing in muted shades or staking out a one-on-one conversation at parties and social events. But try as you might not to hog the spotlight, others can’t help but notice you. Must be hard to be such a goddess!
Despite any lingering modesty, you might be surprised at how much your mere presence can help improve the lives of those around you by infusing them with ideas and good thoughts. With that kind of healing energy, your inspirational ways have the potential to change the world, Muse. Whether you’re scribbling sonnets, boogying with your friends, or drawing your own constellations — you’re tapped in. So keep your eyes wide open to the possibilities and let that inspiration flow!

😆 I finally found a quiz to give to you! Oh, I have to try this Orli quiz here. I’m afraid I don’t know much about Orlando… :look:
Yes! 100% Orlicated!
For once I’m taking a test off Lammy’s page 🙂
YOU ARE A WARRIOR ELF!
You’re known as an elf who’s not afraid to go to battle – you always have your bow beautifully polished and ready for action! Although you’re the bravest elf out there, you tend to neglect your social life in favour of battle quests, so it might pay to find another hobby or two.

But… I’m also:
YOU ARE A TRANQUIL ELF!
You have one hope in this world, and that is to have eternal peace in Middle Earth. You are currently working on making friends with Orcs, although it’s the hardest challenge you’ve come across, your positive attitude won’t let you give up on your dream of world peace.
