Business School

I got into the business school!!!  When I was checking my email this morning and I was excited to find an email from the assistant dean at the Neeley School of Business welcoming me to the business school and congratulating me for being accepted as a business major at TCU.  I am so excited! There's no stopping me now.  I have about three more semesters left, all upper division courses, mostly accounting and finance, and then I will be graduating.  I am shooting for a December 2010 graduation!  What a great blessing it is to be able to go to school and get a degree from such a good school.  I know that I am truly being looked after, and that all my hard work will pay off.

Well, it seems like I haven't been very good about posting updates yet!  I'll see if I can do better in the future.

Things are going pretty good here in Texas.  I am working extra hours at the valet to make up for the other job.  It should be a two-fold blessing to work at the valet.  I get tips, and I get to run, so it's like getting paid to work out!  Plus, I get to drive a lot of different cars, so someday in the future, when I decide it's time for a new car, I will have a lot of ones to choose from.

School is going good.  I have had so many exams this semester that I'm starting to wonder if I am ever going to see the light at the end of the tunnel.  Spring break is in a couple of weeks though, and I'm hoping that I can use the time to study a little and catch up, so that I can finish the semester with a bang.  My Neeley school interview was last week.  TCU requires that business majors apply to the business school, so, it's like applying twice.  You have to apply to get into TCU, and then, once you meet all of the requirements, you have to apply to the business school.  The interview results should be out after spring break, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.  I feel good about the interview; I think it went really well, and the people that I interviewed with were very nice.  

I purchased a dSLR camera, a Nikon d90.  I am going to be starting my own photography business on the side as well.  I am going to be doing the photos for some of my friends engagement pics, as well as some family pics, so I'm off to a pretty good start.  If anybody wants to be my guinea pig, I will take your pics for free as long as you let me add them to my portfolio.

I'm off to bed now.  I have a test tomorrow that I haven't really studied for, but I think it will help if I get some good sleep and wake up early to review the material.
