Well, I just turned down my first Ph.D. offer. Sounds crazy to say that...

So, so close to committing...I can feel this process slowly dwindling to a close, and it is a fabulous feeling.

I have fallen in love...with a program. With the program, the people, the campus, the town. Everything about this place is just perfect.

    Are you talking about Chapel Hill? I know that's where you were leaning. I was just there on Tuesday. We should have met up!

Conferences are so weird. Fun, but so so weird.

    I totally agree. Before I ever went to one, I thought it would be a huge circular room like the UN or something where everyone made speeches... Then I found the odd academic creation called the conference.

    I've been to two; one was totally and completely the weirdest thing ever and the other was absolutely enthralling. Guess those are the two polar options.

It's really nice for that first official rejection not to hurt. :D Still over the moon, with 9 programs to go.

    Maybe we can get tax deductions for our "charitable donations" to all those schools?

Just got accepted to present at a conference I thought I'd surely been rejected from. Maybe this bodes well for schools as well...?

    Thanks for the congrats, everyone! It's the Undergrad Conference on English Lit at the University of St. Francis. Nothing too special, but good experience all the same!
