\"BloggerIt\u2019s been about three months since my last blog post<\/a>. Wow, time has absolutely flown by and a lot has happened. I got a subscription to Netflix, I started watching Breaking Bad<\/em> and Orange is the New Black<\/em>, I briefly considered joining a gym, and oh yeah\u2026 I got accepted to business school!<\/p>\n

I\u2019m still in somewhat of a state of shock regarding how things have worked out. After playing the waiting game with my Round 1 apps, I was finally freed from my cage of anxiety when I got the call from Yale saying I had been admitted! With this first acceptance, I knew that no matter what happened with my other applications I would definitely be starting school in the fall. At the risk of sounding too touchy-feely, I have to admit that it was a pretty magical moment, which alleviated months of stress. After Yale, a flurry of other good news occurred, as I received acceptances from Kellogg, Tuck, and Fuqua.<\/p>\n

In the midst of all of that joy, I also received a golden ticket, also known as an interview invite, from HBS. If you recall<\/a>, in Round 1, I was put on \u201cfurther consideration,\u201d which means that I was neither invited to interview nor rejected. I\u2019m not letting myself get too excited yet, but it\u2019s nice to be moving out of that limbo period.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I am beyond grateful to have options. When I began this process, I was just hoping for one acceptance; I never imagined myself in this position. I\u2019ll need to make some hard decisions over the next few weeks, but this is kind of a freakin\u2019 awesome problem to have. After all, there really is no wrong decision.<\/p>\n

Woohoo!<\/p>\n
