We got some mail yesterday.
(Which considering the terrible mail delivery at our apartment is fantastic news in and of itself.)
Jacob was accepted to his favorite school, Touro in New York City!!!!
We’re beyond ecstatic. Applying to medical school has been a long hard process. We made a lot of mistakes and weren’t sure it was going to work out for us this year. So to have Jacob get into his #1 school is huge. We’re so excited. We have a short while to make some decisions so that will be coming soon. We’re relieved to know we’re going to medical school for sure this year. Somewhere! Not here! We can finally make a decision about our apartment and my job. So many wheels in motion right now… Hopefully final decisions will be made soon but we just had to share our excitement.
I’d trust him with my life. But maybe I’m biased.
(FYI, he started growing the beard on Monday and decided he wouldn’t shave it until he got accepted. He shaved last night!)
Ahhh! Look at that happy face!!
yay! NYC–I hope you know now that we’ll definitely be meeting sometime ;) NYC is about 2 hrs from me :)

Big jumbo CONGRATULATIONS to you and Jacob! I confess — I’ve been lurking here for the longest time. I first noticed your blog last fall when you mentioned that Jacob had applied to the U. My son also applied there (as an out-of-stater) and I kept you bookmarked hoping that one day this spring I’d be able to comment and say that my son and your Jacob would be classmates.
Sadly, that hasn’t happed (my son got waitlisted) but at least they’ll both have great schools to go to (mine to Indiana U.) Congratulations again to you both — and for you — what could be more exciting than NYC??? Woohoo!!!
Yay Jacob! we are so proud! And Emily I’m so excited for you, NYC would be so awesome!
CONGRATULATIONS JACOB!!!
that is so exciting. are you moving to NYC too???
i need details :)
Great job! I work at a hospital and we definitely need more good doctors out there!
