  1. I turned down an unfunded Rhet/Comp PhD at Georgia State and a 30% tuition History and Culture MA/PhD from Drew University.
  2. *BowTies, I'm just going to keep posting after you. I'll be attending Southern Illinois University - Carbondale!
  3. Haha well, we were being cheeky, but Tweedledumb2 and I are basically the same person and were experiencing imminent separation anxiety, so more of a pair than a couple really. We both got into Southern Illinois, actually, but she's going elsewhere. We're trying to be grown-ups about it now
  4. I got into Georgia State over the weekend, so that's exciting. It's good to have choices And congrats BowTies!
  5. Bumping this for this year's conference. We've talked about this in other threads here and there, but let's talk about who's presenting! I'll be there and presenting with Tweedledumb2 -- good times ya'll.
  6. Sorry to hear that, MM. I can only assume we're in the same boat. I still have a few places to hear from, but SIUC is looking more and more likely for me. I hope you hear good news soon!
  7. Didn't realize that existed, but I'm super excited to learn that it does!
  8. And I further appreciate your continued censorship. I will let slip my name... It's .... Tweedledumb
  9. Breaking Bad is good, and Buffy is amazing if you enjoy witty banter and kitsch. I haven't seen House of Cards either, but it comes highly recommended by a lot of people. You should also give Supernatural another shot -- it's not mind blowing but it's a helluva lot of fun (however, since I'm a straight female, the main characters might have something to do with my level of enjoyment...)
  10. I got into Southern Illinois but that's an English degree with a concentration in rhet/comp. My friend has got into four rhet/comp programs though: Louisville, Nebraska, Southern Illinois, and Miami of Ohio.
  11. I listen almost exclusively to Comedy Central's XM station, or the 90s channels, because I either need to be laughing or reliving my childhood to function throughout the day.
  12. Tweedledumb2 and I are presenting at PCA, but we'll be gone before the beer panel, so that's sad. We'll just drink lots of beer before we leave
  13. I went to the store to buy mascara and came out with two bags each of Dove white chocolate and Starburst jelly beans and a family size bag of Twizzlers...I have a problem lol As for alcohol, I've been sticking with Blue Moon because it's delicious.
  14. I'd say definitely not. I don't know of anyone who has. I haven't done well with my apps, but I do have one acceptance and I didn't use a service. I'd even go so far as to say that my apps were definitely not PhD quality, but I've still been offered a spot. (Although, I too am an MA to PhD applicant, so there's probably something to be said about doing an MA first).
