Excellent News!!!

... K, I'm still in shock... I just found out this afternoon that I was accepted into the Criminology Program at the University of Alberta. They had over 700 applicants with only 12 openings, and apparently I get to fill one. lol At first I screamed with excitement while hopping up and down like a rabbit, then it turned to tears of joy and utter shock so the boys asked me "Mommy, why are you crying, it's good news!" lmao OMG, I still can't believe it. Way to go! That's excellent news and I wish you luck with the course if you need it. :-)) -- Paul Griffiths |

CME wrote in message ... "Dennis Here" wrote in message Wonderful news! Congratulations! Amazing what you can achieve when you get a little control on your "attitude" Nah, attitude is still there, it keeps me focused. lol That is exactly what I mean. I think that a certain amount of "attitude" is a good thing, it just needs a direction. When I started my new job I was frequently warned about one of my staff who was supposed to have a "bad" attitude. He is only 21 and to me he was just doing what a lot of guys do at that age but to the extent that he was beginning to have the odd brush with the law. In the last 6 months I have (against advice from others) given him more responsibility rather than less, told him of his value to me and the company and explained to him that he has the makings of a top class scaffolder. His "attitude" has noticeably changed and he is even coming in to work for me on Sunday to help me out of a tight spot. It will be the first Sunday he has ever worked for the firm as he usually spends every Sat night getting ****ed. When you first arrived here Christine you had what could be described as a severe attitude particularly about men. I think neighbours got a mention as well at some point! I am delighted to read your recent posts about your place and about your home and love life. Without your "attitude" things would have taken much longer and may well not have happened at all. I think the College probably recognised the same qualities in you in favour of the other 200 or so. Dennis |

"Tiffany" wrote in message ... As though you didn't know you would get in? T Oh I most certainly had no idea I'd get in. Really. Just picture it, 700 applicants, and 12 spots were filled. The interview went well, but hell it all came down to our GPAs and I didn't think mine was high enough (with twins you chose your battles, B+s and A-s are just fine with me. lol). I think the fact I am a single parent, and a highschool drop out, made them realize that if I can overcome all of that, then hell yeah I'm worthy. lol Christine |
