It's out of my hands...

A few hours before the deadline, I finally submitted the CC application that has been consuming the majority of my time over the past few weeks. Now I just need something else to occupy my thoughts and keep me patient for the next week and a half. I'm not good at waiting.

Regardless of how this turns out, HUGE SHOUT-OUT to all of you who have given me advice, recommendations, shared personal experiences, answered questions, written recommendation letters, and proofread for me throughout all of this. You guys are amazing...and hopefully I will run into many of you in Turkey...
