Blogging for Karma

Rejection sucks.  It’s bad when you’re shot down by a girl or pushed aside by a huge bouncer at a club, but it really hurts when you’ve had your heart set on going to a grad school that you spent countless hours…months…even years…thinking about and preparing for.  Yesterday I was rejected by the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan.  No phone call, no letter in the mail…I had to check online.  As soon as I logged in…bam!  The first thing I see is a digital rejection letter.

It wasn’t my first…I was notified by Fuqua a few weeks ago that I didn’t get in…but at least I also got a letter in the mail!  :-)  I’m still waiting to hear from Anderson and Kellogg…so there is still hope for my business school plans…but if I don’t get accepted this year, I’m ready to face reality.

At least I have a great job at the Mozilla Foundation.  It’s been quite an experience the past year that I have been there and the coming year is going to be just as awesome.  For those that have not yet switched to Firefox, go get it NOW!
