This Is Neat

Now that Adsense is up and running I feel like a million bucks. I won't make that much, but I sure feel like it. The updated Blogger is beyond cool. It shows me my audience, and believe it or not I have had views in South Africa, South Korea, Argentina, Japan, Thailand, France, Brazil, and Russia. That brings a smile to my face. It shows just how international the internet is. even if nobody in those countries actually read the blog, the very idea that they came across my page is exciting.

Making money doing the thing I love is just a bonus. I love this, and I can't wait to make a living from it. 


Last night's blog was pretty depressing. I was in a bad place because i was so unsure of my plans for the future. Today when I woke up I looked back at the mood I was in last night and realized it was all for not. Until I go and check out St. John's and Drexel I can't assume they won't be great. I'm no longer going to New York this weekend, my mom wants to wait two more weekends before we go. Partly so my Dad can drive us up and also because Pap just got surgery and if he has any set backs she wants to be home for him.

Also, today I wrote a letter I plan to send to all the different directors and deans of admission at Fordham. It's a very straightforward letter telling them how I feel about the school and how badly I want it. My Aunt Maureen told me who to send it to (It just so happens that Jarrett knows a few of the deans and other high ranking people, so maybe it'll help out.) Waiting the two weeks is also in hopes that the letter will reach a dean, really move him or her, and have them change their decision and admit me to Fordham. God would that be nice.

What's great about the letter is it is my final attempt. Like so many times before I've faced an ultimatum and I've given it one more chance. This is that chance, and if it works or not, at least I can look back knowing I exhausted every possibility. 


I'm so pumped to see how this all turns out. Both the money making from this blog and my college decision. needless to say it should be interesting.

Today I was informed something that made me laugh, smile, and nauseous all at the same time.

I'll just let that bug you all, not knowing what I heard that is.

Aside from all that last night I dreamed a dream I have dreamed twice before. It's a dream about you. Who you is can be interpreted many different ways. If you think it's you, then it probably is. If you think it's someone else, it very well might be. Dreams are wondrous and woeful. You can awake with a smile on your face, like I did last night, only to realize that the dream was not reality. But this dream is realistic and I like to think it's possible.

Bed time for Mr. Optimism though.

  1. When I was waitlisted at Williams, I wrote a letter to the head of admissions - guess what? It worked, and when I met him in person, he remembered the letter. Don't give up hope and I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you.
