I'm so excited. I can't tell anyone yet because it's not 100% confirmed so this is the only place I can talk about it. lol

DH and I both met with student advisers from Oregon State University and they looked at our transcripts and said that with our 4.0 GPAs we're almost guaranteed to get accepted. So now all we have to do is formally apply and wait for our acceptance letter. I will be SO happy to get out of this town. I mean, I love everything that I've learned and I'll miss my friends but there are no job opportunities here and the community college is a joke. I can't wait to move because we'll be closer to a big city (shopping!!!!) and closer to a major airport which means I can fly home to visit my parents much, much cheaper than I can now.

Anyway, I'm just excited and bursting to tell someone so I'm telling you all. lol

YAY!!!! sounds GOOD! You'd love Corvallis -- I was born there. And you're so much closer to the coast, to Portland.....oh yeah, and it's a GOOD (if not excellent) college! You should BOTH be so proud of those GPAs, too!!!!
