I've often been told that I should apply myself.

Yesterday I submitted three applications to graduate programs in history. We shall see if I get admitted anywhere. I'm not an ideal candidate, and competition is very strong this year. The bad economy makes it harder to get into grad school for two reasons: people getting their bachelor's degrees have limited job prospects, and universities are suffering cuts in government funding, endowment earning, and alumni contributions.

But nothing ventured, nothing gained. It'll be several months until the admissions committees let me know. I can hardly wait!
