great idea. I've got to come up with my own song. You applied to Iowa too, didn't you? I think they're going to take a really long time if they're at all running things like they did last year. What's your plan so far if you don't get in anywhere? I did have some awesome recs and took a class with PV. But I learned a couple years ago that those recs. aren't always the ticket. PV actually sent me a letter of rec. to get me into an internship at Actors Theatre, and I never even got an interview. All fairness though, I didn't work very hard on my essay, because I thought a rec from her was gong to be my way in.glad I learned that lesson before applying to grad school. I'll be thinking of you as well, when I refresh my email 30 times.
