Tired, but happy tonight

                I just came back from a restaurant – I am stuffed, and a bit sick. The food was good… for like the first five bites. And then it was just too rich. But really, apple pie with walnut crust and caramel sauce with a side of vanilla ice cream is truly heaven. Definitely ate a lot more than I should have. I love caramel and I love ice cream and I love apple pie. I’m not so sure about the walnut though… I don’t think I like nuts in my desserts. Except for hazelnut in Nutella. That’s allowable. I am a pretty happy child, very sleepy, but I must blog. It is part of my daily routine. Or else.
                I got accepted into UChicago! That’s quite wonderful now, isn’t it? So was J-! Today is a good day. That gives PRISM an overall early acceptance rate of 4, as far as I know. I think the stats might at this point (might be) 4 acceptances, 11 deferrals, and only 3 rejections. That’s pretty good. However, I don’t know about everyone, so I probably missed a few people in my stats. Also, people show up twice in my stats (me and S-, for example)… But still! That sounds pretty awesome, because there are more acceptances than rejections. Also I have a school to go to now! That’s always happy and joyful.
                I, however, am still not done with college applications as a whole. At least if I get rejected from everywhere else I apply to, I will still have a good school to go to. Hurray! I have a bottom-line school that sets the bar pretty high. I am content.
                I need to read The Writing Life. After the first few pages, I wasn’t able to actually get to it. I suppose I just don’t really want to read it? I have better things to do. Like write my story. Also, these last few posts really don’t have very much to do with writing.  I mean, a lot of my older posts have to do with writing. And the muses and character sketches come in waves. I don’t really feel that my writing has become that much better. I suppose I have learned how to slightly curb my purple, or at least become more aware of it, but I still have a tendency to do so because I like the purple quite a bit. But I see purple in other people’s writing, and I do not like it at all. I suppose purple is just a lot of fun to write, but not fun for anyone else to read. And I suppose I have to write for my readers, don’t I? Although really, this blog is for myself. I’m getting to know myself better through blogging, and through daily blogging, I start to understand what I am up to. And basically what I got out of it: I’m a very random, crazy, and confused girl.
                Oh hey, look, it was analysis! Tucked deep into the dark recesses of my randomness. Anyways, I would be really impressed if anyone read all of my posts. Because I will have a lot by the time the semester is over.
                Oh right! I remember who I was supposed to notify if I got into a school. Oh well, I forgot about her…. Sorry. I will let her know eventually.
                I’m really tired tonight, and don’t feel much like blogging. Hurray for J-, Inx, A-, and me!
                By the way, I totally smile goofily whenever I see my phone background. I am such a dork/fangirl. Those are not mutually exclusive.  Oh, I almost forgot. Happy golden birthday C-!
