Application Form Complete

I just got back from submitting my official University application form. Wheee! Now I get to wait two to four weeks to see if I’ve been accepted. I must admit, I was nervous about the whole ordeal – I know, it’s silly. I guess I was just worried that I would have papers missing or maybe what the program director told me wasn’t all that accurate – weird fears. However, it all went very well. It was silly of me to be nervous, quite frankly. I didn’t even get a parking ticket (I didn’t have change for the meter).

This whole idea still seems surreal. It reminds of when I decided to join Team Diabetes. It had been in the back of my mind for years so when I finally joined it’s like it was still just an idea or a dream. Once the initial high of joining passed, panic set in. What? I have to raise $6,200 AND run a marathon? GAH! That’s the stage I’m currently feeling. It’s like the seed has been planted but I won’t know for a while if the plant is actually going to take. Until I started seeing the money for Team D come in and the training began, it still felt like it actually might not happen. So until I get my house, get accepted, get my finances in order, I’ll have to keep watching my little seedling, nurture it and hope it grows and blooms.
