Thanks. I'm not sure about any of them accepting me, but even if I get rejected everywhere I still expect to do something good (heh, something good.) with my life, and that's something.

And yeah, aren't the edelweiss pretty? I didn't actually see any when I was in Austria, and that disappointed me greatly. For all that the song seems to portray them as a kind of...simple flower, they look rather fancy to me. Though still "clean and bright"! I used to think that those tiny star daisies, the ones that are really only weeds?--I don't know what they're called--were what edelweiss must be like. Very small and unassuming, but rather sweet and refreshing in a feild full of them.
