So far, North Carolina and Winston-Salem have offered me tunnel bridges, breakfast nachos, hiking, and one super excellent game of Jenga. My interview is tomorrow and while I haven’t been interviewed for something in a long time and I’m not super excited about the program from the interaction so far, having reread my application essay, I’m reminded why I’m here and why I want to pursue this, even though it’s going to bring lots of unwanted, but purposeful changes. Positive thoughts, Native-American soul dances, and whatnot appreciated that I can do what we’re all hoping for at the end of the day: to be myself…..and to have people like me. 🙂
