Are any of you fine people applying to grad schools?! Have you started writing your personal statement?? Well, I hate writing about myself and what I'm good at. Obviously I love writing about my life and experiences but when it comes to putting myself out there, I'm awful at it. I don't want to come off as this self obsessed person... So after two years, I've written my first personal statement for grad school. I literally just got it hot off the press and you know what, it wasn't hard. I shared difficult experiences, good ones, and the reasons why I am applying... The more I think about it, the more I know I will go to grad school to better my future. I am not sure that actually getting accepted is in the cards for me, but I do know that I'm going to try to at least apply. I can't wait for February to get here so I can finally let y'all know what the rest of the Ruby&Max plans are!!!!
Today, I want to leave you with my favorite quote by Mr. Winston Churchill- "Success is never final. Failure is never fatal. It is courage to continue that counts..."
I believe this with my heart you guys. If there is one characteristic I want Max to remember me by it is COURAGE. I want him to be courageous too. So, go out there! Be courageous! Ride that roller coaster! Eat that foreign food!! And then, come back and tell me about it. You know I love a good story!

You are brave! And little Max can feel it in his heart. He knows is mother has courage and that's where his courage will be born. I can't wait to hear about your mysterious future plans. I am so happy for you!
ps i'm sure i'm not just speaking for myself when i say, i'd love to read your personal statement.
Bless you dear! I will definitely let you in on my secret once the plans are in place. I would hate to jinx it... anyway, I'll post that personal statement for you!
