Wait listed...

So I asked God for patience, and he probabaly gave me the best example ever. Western U of Health Sciences put me on their waitlist. So at any point from now to early August 2009, I could be asked to go to school down in Pomona. I have a lot to think about now, with a lease expiring in May, and a lot of other choices to make, I'm not sure what's going to happen and I HATE that! I am a planner, so the next few months are going to be really crazy for me. Keep me in your prayers and pray that I make decisions that will 1) allow me to follow God's will and not my own, and give me the courage to look outside my own plans and 2) not just be the easy position to take, but a well thought out plan.

Thanks!

Well, I'm exhausted right now. It took me 3 hours, 2 buses and a light rail to get home from the airport. I woke up with a 3 am phone call from the Super Shuttle people, and finally got home at noon. All I wanted was veggies, fruit and all natural food. Too much grease and fried these past couple days! Anyway, I'm going to take a nap now, but here are the photos, and I'll post something again soon!

I've got some 'xplaining to do!

Okay, so this is a little late and a little after the fact, but I did want to keep everyone updated on the happenings of their favorite Courtney in the PNW (Pacific NorthWest)! So here's a recap:

About 10 days ago I received an email from Lacey, an admissions rep from Western U of Health Sciences in Pomona, CA, asking me if I had sent my GRE scores to their program. I had, but of course I paid an additional $20 to resend my scores, which Western received a few days later.

Then last Thursday I received an email saying my application was complete and they were sending it to the admissions committee to review it. Super, I thought. Although I could have sworn this whole process was done and over with by now, but I'm not complaining! Not 10 minutes later I received another email requesting my presence in Pomona on Wednesday April 8th for an interview for the Doctorate of Physical Therapy Program! Crazy? I think so!

So as of right now, 5:10 pm on Tuesday, April 7th, I'm sitting in the Sheridan hotel, waiting for my poor dad who is stuck in Denver for an extra 45 minutes, and then we will go and celebrate with an In-n-Out burger with our family friend Ricky. Not a bad week, I'd say! Though my emotions feel like they've been toyed with or otherwise thrown on the worst roller coaster in the world, I'm taking it much better than many (including myself) would have expected.

All in all, I ask for your thoughts and prayers over the next 36 hours! It's going to be a blur!
