Does she have a backup specialty school choice
No, but the mainstream school she'd go to has a good digital media/film program. So that's the backup and some of her friends would be going there.
Among her friends who applied to SOTA there's almost an even split on who got in.
Did Not Get In:
Matilda
Norah (one of her besties)
Amelia (her closest friend in film)
Did Get In:
Isabella (one of her besties. A very talented artist)
Alex (a girl in her film class)
Anjelica (into the dance program)
Haven't heard from Anya (who applied to creative writing) or Justy (also film).
I'm sorry Matilda didn't get in! She's so creative and talented. This certainly won't be her only opportunity. Wonderful that she has such a supportive family, and she's so kind and well-adjusted that she was able to be happy for her friends who did get in.
KB, holy hell, what awful people. Kudos to you for remaining calm.
OMG, Katerina. What the hell.
What a thing, Katie Bee!
I'm glad to hear M's alternative is promising. I'm pretty excited (vicariously) for her film career. Her and Owen, I expect to be very entertained by them!
Wine and then pina coladas, is that the wrong direction? It's been a long week and I am writing today off.
I am think of making a mask or two and seeing if I have any exercise shirt or legging fabric to line it with since those fabrics are made to wick away moisture and dry quickly. I know the handmade ones aren't as good and will need to be washed after every use.
JZ just went up to get tested.
She got pushed to the front of the triage because she was in a case conference with a room full of pediatric heart surgeons within the last week so they need to know right away if she was an asymptomatic carrier, and whether they all need to be tested or quarantined.
Oh dear. Much health~ma to JZ, praying she doesn't have it.
Oh no. Much health ~ma to JZ (and school ~ma to M) I so hope she doesn't have it, obviously for you guys, but then also that is a lot of vulnerable people exposed. (This is why you maybe let support staff at major medical centers work from home)
I went in to work today (no one else was there) to pick up a few things and ended up with four bags of stuff. I had a lot of close there, I deposited the last checks (that I had not secured- whoops), uploaded a whole bunch of files to the Box drive rather than the CLL, because my VPN is not so great with my terrible internet.
One uber driver was wearing a mask, and the other thinks the whole thing is ridiculous, and we won't get it because no one comes to Rochester. I am like- we didn't know where all these students were on Spring Break!!
I also took home some personal photos I don't have scanned, because I think there is a possibbility they could use our offices for patients, or at least for office for folks treating patients if the hospital runs out of beds.
