It was a long day.
I left the south a bit later than I had planned and arrived at a small, public university, in an only electorally significant, midwestern state, just thirteen minutes before my first MCAT prep class began. There was nothing surprising about the course content and I was significantly less anxious about the material I need to review than I was last September when every day required cramming.
I’m writing from a dangerously cheap hotel room just outside the city limits. Despite my plans to live out of my car, the frigid temperatures have me rethinking my plans, at least for the winter months. I will have to sort out my living arrangements tomorrow.
And I forgot my coat.

Frigid temps and you forgot your coat? I’m suggesting Goodwill. Did your parents offer any helpful advice before you left on this trip? I’m not sure why, but they are they first people that I thought of when I read your last post and this one.

Ha! I blame the southeastern state I generally live in. It was in the 60s when I left and I didn’t have on a coat. I can’t believe I forgot it. That is exactly where I went. There was a Goodwill down the street from my hotel and I found a coat!
I may or may not have told my parents a couple of days prior to my departure 👀 Ultimately, they were really supportive and have just been calling me a lot to check-in. I appreciate them a great deal.

Awesome. Glad about the coat. Super glad about telling your parents. I like to think that they some influence on you staying in a very cheap hotel vs your car. Perhaps it was just the temperature 🤒.

Not sure exactly where you are, but I’m in the midwest and if you are near here, let me know if I can help at all.
