it makes me feel less alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a few weeks ago i was pretty down in the dumps about not getting invited to interview with hbs or stanford. tonight, on the eve of their decisions (dings in all probability), i can't help but think back to all the people who helped me to the end of this very long road. my husband, my readers, my recommenders, friends who are currently at school...the list goes on and on. if i have learned anything from this experience, it is that i'm incredibly blessed to be surrounded by people who will chip in and do everything they can and more to help me achieve my goals. so to them: thank you.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19959753-113717598190214401?l=maybemba.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://maybemba.blogspot.com/feeds/113717598190214401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19959753&amp;postID=113717598190214401' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19959753/posts/default/113717598190214401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19959753/posts/default/113717598190214401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://maybemba.blogspot.com/2006/01/finally-real-post.html' title='Finally, a real post!'/><author><name>mba...maybe</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00028043981916578403</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19959753.post-113712001294878989</id><published>2006-01-12T18:36:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-12T18:40:12.946-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Finished with round 2.</title><content type='html'>Turned in my last application two days ago!
