    Congratulations on your acceptance!! and your health. It makes you appreciate what you have when you have it.

    I am currently in school doing another associates and working full time at the Hospital. So my life has been put on hold, it seems like, while I go through my school phase again too.

    I totally understand about the bike. I have been struggling with that ever since I went back to school. I have not yet found a balance. I'm just glad we have a trainer and I can "ride" in the house. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

    On to conquer your dreams...

    Thanks everyone! I'm still feeling a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. The uncertainty of this last year was tough.

    Kat_h - I know! Waiting is the worst. That should have been our theme song. It's so weird that so many schools send out emails now. It's not really about the big envelope or the little envelope anymore. I hope you hear great news from Manitoba soon! What are you studying?

    Red Rock - It's so tough to find balance when you're that busy and it sounds like you're working really hard. I didn't even have a full time job last year and was having a lot of trouble taking time for myself that didn't involve studying. I guess in the end it's worth it though, huh?

    The main problem with me taking my bike is that the city I'll be in, Montreal, is so crazy. It's a wonderful city, but I can't tell you how many times I've almost been run over in cross walks by cabs. I hope I can find a way to at least have my bike on a trainer. Of course I'll let you know if I find a way to make it work, and let me know if you find any tips/hints .

    Félicitations! Montréal! Fabulous! I wanted so much to go to college there, but being a foreign student made it too expensive. It's one of my favorite cities; congratulations.

    You can always head north to check out La Route Verte bike route. It's on my priority list.

    Merci, Tulip! I totally forgot about La Route Verte. And when I looked it up I found that Montreal was voted the best cycling city by Bicycling Magazine in 1999 and 2001. Good to know!

    Montreal is beautiful and vibrant, I'm excited to be in the city again.

    Congratulations. I am also waiting to hear about my acceptance to the MA in clinical mental health program at Lesley University. I will know in about 2 weeks.
    I already have a masters in education, but I am excited that I will be back in school full time, since everything else I have done has been while I have been working.
