    So, apologies if this kind of thing should be posted somewhere else; I didn't see a thread that would fit in my quick survey of the forum.

    Anyway, I have some good news. It came in the form of an email that read:
    So....Whoohoo! I only applied to this program and have been anxiously awaiting an answer for 6 weeks. They were supposed to notify me 2-3 weeks after I submitted the application. Lies! Anyway, I'm quite pleased, since otherwise I'd have graduated with absolutely nothing planned for the future. :thumbsup:

    So, what good things have happened to the rest of you recently?

    I am happy for you all! WooHoo!

    My good news is actually for the farmer behind us. This morning his barn caught on fire and thankfully none of his animals were killed. His home and other property wasn't damaged and no one was hurt. I love to be woke up by the rooster. (except at 4am)

    Congrats allmaple :) That's great news! Good Luck with your interview. Vet school is really hard to get into! Wow, really well done!

    I've just finished a performance with my theater company, and an agent came to watch on the second night. He liked it so much he came back on the final night, took my PO box number and said he'd like to get in touch with me :). Yey, I'm excited, but I'm not holding my breath. I know how unreliable agents can be. But still, tis good news for my career :).

    Well done :D

    Good news is so fantastic.

    And adorelo, that sounds like very good news :)

    My good news isn't really anything that great, but I just booked a holiday to Miami, I'm so excited, never been to the USA :D

    Oh, have fun in Miami, bubbles :). Soak up the sun and play with the sand.

    And I have more god news. It's been a great week for me. Aside from exams (which have all gone relatively okay) my days have been very smiley :).

    I got word today that I got the part in A streetcar named Desire, by Tennessee Williams. I'm playing Blanche DuBois :D Yey. Obviously, it's with a theater group, as Blanche is supposed to be an older woman and I'm really, well, not. But still, it's a great part and I can't wait to get started, especially since it's a group I've not worked with before. I like new people.

    Come on, guys, share, share :D. What's good with your lives?

    My son was inducted into the National Junior Honor Society. That is the best news for me. I am so proud of him. I could not ask for anything more.

    I graduated from Penn State with a BS in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology this morning. Penn State does each ceremony by college, and mine was probably the first to go - 9 AM. The commencement speaker was decent (Dr. Phillip Sharp) and it didn't last too long.
