Bad news? I didn't get into UVA. After months of waiting, staying nervous and checking the website literally once in every 5 seconds, it turns out that my effort was in vain. But one good thing is that I'm not as shocked as I was when I got a rejection from Cornell for the first time. It doesn't feel as shitty like that time. My chance of getting into Cornell this year as a transfer is slim, in fact so slim that I'm not even looking forward to it. I already assumed that I didn't get in, which means that UVA was the only school that I was actually expecting to get good news from. Well, that's bummer, isn't it?

Thanks to this weird situation, I think I'm going to stay here for another year, wouldn't be able to go to Korea and spend the whole summer in U.S. I'd also have to look for housing here for next academic year and pretty much I have to go through a whole bunch of shit that I really didn't look forward to...

Maybe I lacked preparation this year as well. Maybe my stats weren't good enough, or simply it's not my destiny (If there really is destiny anyways). But at the same time, this painful experience could mean another chance to me, and another opportunity to strengthen myself.

From today, there is only like 3 weeks left before the school is over. It's never late to soak into grief once I take care of these businesses. This is a good alert to tidy up myself and move on to the next level. I need to realize that this is not the end of the world, but maybe another change to take a great leap forward.
