good news

Haven't updated the blog for a while...I got a letter from the psych department stating that I got a provisional admission into the Ph.D. program. When I pass the comprehensive exam this summer, I will be officially admitted into the Ph.D. program. Interestingly, I wasn't as excited as I thought I would be when I got the admission letter. I wonder why... Anyway, it's good to know that I have one less thing to worry about. Now I have to work on getting A's for all the classes...ugh.

Ok, quick update on the past few days...

Friday--went to Guggenheim Museum in the evening. They have "pay as you wish" admission on Friday evenings, and that's why I went there on Friday. Even though the museum was under construction, I still enjoyed it. The architecture was pretty neat.

Saturday--walked around Times Square; very touristy. stopped by at Gap to try some clothes on. Then, went to Jackson Heights to get my eye brow done. As usual, it was quite painful!!! Anyway, they had 50% off on facial, so I decided to get one for the first time (only for $20)! My skin felt very soft afterwards. The only drawback was that it wasn't as relaxing; the chair was very uncomfortable and the place was too noisy and crowded. Actually, someone bumped into my head really hard when I was gettin my facial done--that's how crowded it was in the salon.

Sunday--cloudy and yucky day, so I went to Ikea to cheer myself up. There's a free shuttle between Port Authority and Ikea--quite useful. Bought some candles and other stuff for our apartment. Quite content!

Monday--had babysitting for 5 hours!!! so tired because kids suck out energy from me. other than that, quite uneventful. finally did laundry. yay for me.

gotta get ready for the meeting with my mentor...
