Good News- I've Been Saved!!!

Well, not in the religious sense, but I have been waiting for a month for this to arrive.... Every day, I wait with baited breath for a fat envelope in the mailbox. I didn't matter to me if the envelope said Kaiser-Allied or Cañada College, it just had to be fat and substantial.

Today, when I heard the mailman leave my porch, I ran to the mailbox. There was a whole bunch of mail, which was a good sign! Quickly I sifted through the mail only to find that every single piece of mail was addressed to my next door neighbor, the house on my right! Argh!! I walked it over and dropped it in their mailbox, but started thinking that maybe the mailman just got all the mail one house off, so I dropped by the house on my left, hoping that perhaps they got my mail.

I rang the doorbell and spoke with Lisa, my neighbor, and explained my mail conundrum, and that I was expecting a very important piece of mail, but only if I were so lucky. She checked her mail, but regretfully nothing was addressed to me. Disappointed, I went back home to accept consolation from my dog, Cookie.

Later on this evening, I heard an email arrive on my cell phone. I went to check it and to my astonishment, it was an email from Cañada College. Not really knowing what to expect from an email, I opened and read it. The email stated that I had been accepted into the Cañada College rad tech program!! That was so bizarre- I kind of felt like this notification sneaked through the back door. But I'll take it any way it comes!

What this really means is that now I don't have to start classes next week at Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts. And if I don't start classes, I don't have to pay any tuition! My bank account is feeling better already! What a relief!
