!!!!

I am officially delivering the news to yalls: UC Berkeley has admitted me!
Now there is a BUT to this, but I will focus on what I've been blessed with, and that is the fact that I have a "dream" school that I can now consider a reality. So thank you God thank you God thank you God. I will tell you what exactly happened, mostly for reasons of keeping record (I picture myself looking back to this post and smiling). I was at a library, doing homework, with the buddies. They have all applied to this school, so we all knew this letter was sitting in each of our mailboxes (all this is electronic fyi). All my friends checked before I did, and these kids... are smart kids. They have gotten into better schools than this one, and YES they were admitted.

Im tired of telling the story now, so im going to stop. I should remember this moment no matter where I am or how old I am, because this is one of those moments. Future Irene, you KNOW this was by His will, because you even whispered it to yourself before you clicked on that button.

To explain about the BUT part, I am admitted for the spring quarter, not the fall. this means, i BARELY made it, and this makes me even more thankful. It was like God telling me, "hey, Irene, that was really close. You know this is all me haha" He's a smart guy.

I need you guys to keep praying for me, there are more schools I am waiting on. I'm happy with what I have, but if any of these letters carry good news, God definitely wants me out of California. More updates to come this week. I love you guys.

Oby, happy birthday!
Grace see you friday!
Jacqulyn I miss you!

i read an article on wallstreet journal that talked about how effective it is to set realistic goals, raising that test score one percent at a time.
