a history of me

Having survived 48 hours, I returned to "First Stop" medical where they told me I did not have TB. Duh.

This meant I could tell the health center I don't have TB. Which meant the "hold" on my records was released, which meant that I could finally request my academic transcript be sent to the study abroad office. I also sent transcript requests to my previous universities, one via Express Mail and one via fax (needed some help with that one, as I don't have a fax machine but I needed to sign my request). Along the way I picked up my foreign language evaluation from my Japanese professor, an illogical formality since the whole point of me going to Japan is so that I can study Japanese (and the other classes will be in English). All this means that the only thing "missing" from my application is one of my two required academic references. I'm a little miffed since I actually requested that way in advance and this guy apparently never turned it in. So now I have to track him down and find out what the fuck happened but I have to be really nice about it since this is a huge favor he's doing for me.

Dear sweet lord I hope this all goes through. Besides the fact that I really really really want to go to Japan, I don't think I could stand reapplying and taking another trip on this merry-go-round next semester.
