wow. can i just gush how ecstatic i am to have discovered this gem of a blog and all you fellow peers leaving replies?? i too am in this awful limbo-landia of having been admitted to a program (also columbia loren!) and still hoping and waiting on ucsf.. but knowing that there are some like-spirited souls out there who didn't take the straight course to becoming an NP is truly putting some wind back in my sails (i've recently been wanting to forget the whole waiting game and just go farm somewhere)!

thanks to you ALL!!

hey you,
(i'm the prospective ucsf/mepn/fnp/etc.etc. applicant-friend-of-surfer-sara's you coached on interviewing at sara's party several weeks ago. months? maybe it was months. eek. in any case, i was really grateful for your interview tips! see outside parenthetical for how much i appreciate other stuff too-->) i've been devouring your blog like mad! it's amazing. i have to say, this embarrassing shit is super reassuring, in a sort of clairvoyant way for me. i guess i'm coming to terms with the fact that, regardless of whether i get into ucsf, i'm gonna be doing this accelerated ass-kicking humility program (just heard i was admitted to columbia. woot. i mean, shit, this is happening!), and your blog is making my future self feel much better. wow. also, making my present self giggle.
sounds like the doc was at least mildly amused, and in this business, well, maybe you gave him something more valuable than just an inconvenient phone call.
all this to say, thanks. this rawks.
xoxo,
loren
