Just got home and nothing in the mail. No calls today or emails. It's been real quiet for me. I'm taking it as a bad sign, seeing as GSD, RISD were getting back to people earlier this week. And today, Cornell. I've gone from been tense to being in a bad mood and snappy with people. I guess I should be a little more optimistic. It seems that some of these schools spread out their acceptances. Or maybe it's just my wishful thinking. Time to drink!

I'm shooting for sciarc or UW, a lot closer and cheaper for me, though I've heard from neither of them yet. I just don't see columbia as being worth it, AND I didn't send in their scholarship app. so they offered me nadda.

$200k+ for a march? No thanks.

I lost my mail key!

Argh....I keep looking in the cracks...It is dark in there.

Citibank bill was 274.04$

I ran up a bill during studio 4 on modeling supplies....er,might have been a bar tab.
