Our family spent the morning watching the presentations for the Wash U students online. Zong's school does an awesome job where they do a webcast of each student receiving their letter on stage and reading the results live in front of their friends and family. It was incredibly touching to see the excitement and joy on the faces of these students who have worked so hard and achieved so much.
I ended up watching it from beginning through the end even after Zong was done because I felt so honored to be a witness to these couples finding out that they're matched in the same city, families discovering where they'll be living for the next 4-8 years, and ... drum roll ... hearing that Zong is going to be spending some quality here in our very own Dallas! Zong matched for Plastic Surgery here at UT Southwestern which, incidentally, was his first choice in locations. So not only will he be close by, he's one smart cookie that his #1 wanted him, too!
So proud of you, Dr. Zong, and can't wait to have you here in Dallas! No pressure to hang out with us ever, but at least you know that you'll always have family nearby, a room to crash, meals to share, fridges to raid, and hugs ready to give.
P.S. If I'd known my dad was going to take a picture (well, duh, what was I thinking?!), I would have taken video of the annoucement instead!
