On Friday, I discovered that I was placed on the Wait List at the University of Chicago. I wasn’t especially worried or bothered by this; I was previously accepted to McGill University, my top choice, so I have known for a while now that I would be going to the school I wanted to go [ READ MORE ]
Papers leave no time for me to think, do other homework, or write blog posts. There went my « update every day » plan.
