Me Made May Update

May 20, 2010 in Uncategorized | No comments

So Me Made May is in full swing. I don’t have enough made-by-me clothes to wear only those, so I’ve been making it a goal to wear all the garments I’ve made throughout the month. I’ve worn them all except a dressy dress–it is a little on the uncomfortable to me short side, and a jean skirt–again shorter than I am generally comfortable wearing.

Today I wore a shirt I made  a while back paired with a cardigan. Sorry for the silly shot–the mirror wasn’t working because of the lighting.

It has been fun so far.

I’m feeling better about the MBA school thing. I got my nails done yesterday and spent some quality time cleaning our place–weird how cleaning makes me feel better.

I’ve also been surviving on hot tea because of the summer cold/sinus/stuffy nose mess I’m battling right now–hence the really red face in the photo above. No fun.

Peace,

^-^

So today I got my admissions results. I applied to MBA school. I started my application 10 days before the deadline, including taking the GMAT. The process was challenging, frustrating, and one of the most invigoratingly creative things I’ve done in a long while. I didn’t get in. I saw the deficits in my application when I submitted it–work experience, GMAT score, etc. But I still hoped.

I am bummed. I don’t know where I will go from here. But I look forward to more challenging, frustrating, and invigorating creativity in the future. We’ll see what that looks like.

One person that kept asking about the progress of my application told me, “God has bigger plans if you don’t get in.” I know she meant well. But I have a hard time with that  sentiment. I’ve written this sentence 20 times and gone on 20 different tangents. I haven’t quite solidified my thoughts. Maybe I will, maybe I won’t.

This is where I’m at.

Peace,

^-^
