Good news and bad news.

Good news: I got an interview for an HTA. But, honestly, I expected it. (Wow, how's THAT for an ego?) I did well last year, Dr. Kleiber knows me, I have a good GPA/etc. Though apparently there are three times as more applicants than there are spaces. I wonder why they just don't have more HTA's and fewer spaces? Maybe I should ask that?

Bad news: I didn't get the SPIA scholarship for Oxford. The rejection letter was very nice, and out of 20 people, they only chose 1 person. But, that means I'm so far 3 for 4 for losing scholarships. Not very good. Also, what is it about me, or my essays, or anything, that makes me fail at scholarships. Why can't I just be good enough for something? I guess I did get the STARS position...who knows how many went for that. Probably only a few. And I know two of us got jobs.

I did have an interview today for a Habitat Board position. I think I'm qualified and would fit in, but we'll see. They didn't ask, but I told them I was going away after Spring Break. I wonder if that'll have a factor.

We're going to see a Noh play tonight. I think that'll be really cool. Tomorrow's going to be relatively boring. Boo. Some meetings, Chinese, gymnastics meet at 7:30. I do have to finish my Pickering essay by 11:00 tomorrow for Jessica. I'd like to edit it at least three times before I show it to her. It's just...not happening.

I also am having something problems with the Bursar and my account. So I have to go talk to them tomorrow. It's weird.

And it's almost impossible to find a job. Srsly. It sucks.

Obama drafted legislation for Guantanamo. That's awesome. He's starting right away and starting strong. A great idea. It'll make him and America look good. I think this is going to look good in the eyes of the world too.

That's it. Still probably won't be another couple of weeks till I hear about the midterm. Probably right after I turn in my Pickering application, which is due on the 6th. I really hope I get the Incentive Scholarship from the Oxford Office. I could use the money for books/food/travel. Or at least a little bit of travel. Because right now, I have nadda. Or, very little.
