Up and at 'em Pittsburgh! Today I woke up at the crack of dawn to get ready for my second graduate school interview. I did not regret it one bit!
Look how beautiful my city is!! Living in such a pretty part of Oakland definitely has its benefits.
So I picked out my interview outfit (a white turtleneck and pretty statement necklace) and did my makeup in a simple yet put together way. I was getting so excited with every piece of the outfit!
Heading over to Hillman for some peace and quiet, and to not disturb my sleeping roommates, I was ready to set up my little interview station. But first, Cathy was lookin' oh so gorgeous.
Anyway, I set all my things down in my little private area (which didn't have a door, but I didn't mind) and look who I found watching over my little nervous self.
Good old football head. Nothing like one of my favorite 90s Nickelodeon characters to make me feel at home.
But then, a guy started working on something super loudly! Out of all the areas in the whole library, he's right next to me and starts drilling on something with his power tools. So I had to get my butt out of there before the interview, and thankfully I made it in time.
The interview went well, I just couldn't really read it too well. But we'll see in the future how it went!
I thought I ought to give myself a reward for getting these interviews done the past couple of days, so I made myself a hearty stack of chocolate chip pancakes. Om nom nom.
And I finally mastered the pan flip! Super chef master manda, yep that's me.
Afterwards, my day was full of cleaning, a social media meeting (where Abby joined us via Facetime! Hi Abby!), laundry, checking emails/sending thank you emails, and more of that adult life. Also, talking with my parents so they know what's up.
Then, my roommates and I all watched The 100-Foot Journey while eating a big pasta dinner to carb load up for the big day tomorrow. Wish us luck, our feet will need it!
So basically I won't be updating this blog until Sunday night after I die from the 24 dance marathon. Hang tight until then! I promise I'll have stories to tell =)
See ya next time with blisters on my feet, and one more check mark off my bucket list!
XO
Amanda
