SQUEEEEE Baylor SQUEEEEEEE
I have other posts in various stages of writing and thinking, but this one deserves its own:
No assistantship or funding, but I'm crossing that bridge when I get to it. Right now, after two previous years of applying to grad school and not getting accepted, I'm just ecstatic that I actually got in somewhere, and not just somewhere, but my top choice.
Now, do I take it immediately, or do I wait and see if I get funding from the other schools? Or do I want to go to Baylor enough more (which I sort of do) that I'd rather work my butt off to go there than to go to the other places? What's the protocol here? I don't have the official acceptance from the school yet, just the e-mail acceptance from the program director, so I guess I could wait until I get that, but I feel like I ought to acknowledge his e-mail in some way... I'm so green at all of this!
Green, but excited.
I GOT IN TO BAYLOR!!!

Congratulations, girl!! Had to let you know that you'll be just 2-3 hours north of us here in Austin -- we'd love to have you come visit for a homecooked meal (or some awesome Tex-Mex!) BTW -- loved your thoughts about upcoming films. You've given me a lot to think about!
Thanks, Annie! I'm getting a masters in English. My undergrad profs always told me I should major in English...only took me three years out of school to convince me they were right! (My undergrad was communications.)
Carol - I forgot you were in Austin! I was there in January, but I was pretty busy so I probably wouldn't have had time to stop by anyway. I forsee lots of Ramen in my future, so I'm sure I'll be up for a homecooked meal at some point! Thanks!
