Just one more campus visit (out of five) until I make my decision! I should make a decision by next week ... how intense!
-
Heard from my first program today, and it was a rejection. Oh well!
-
Guess what, guys? I get to do this all over again this Fall! That's right; I'll be applying for PhD programs! I'll be back here ruminating with y'all. Looking forward to it!

First semester complete. Great time being a TA and learning so much.
-
Officially attending Lehigh University's MA program in sociology beginning in August!
-
My wait is OFFICIALLY over! I've been officially accepted to Lehigh University and the University of Delaware. I couldn't be happier!
-
Had the best time this weekend at a conference, and I have heard back from all schools I've applied to *deep breath* now time to make some decisions!
-
So much happening this week! Two calls of good news Monday (acceptance and invite to recruitment weekend) and another conference tomorrow! So excited!
-
My first conference is in two days! I'm simultaneously elated, honored, and nervous!

Awww thank you, Academicat! This is a fairly relaxed and nurturing conference, from what I've been told =) We sit at a table of about four others and present our findings in a roundtable format. My professor told me that her table-mates would ask "So, what story will you be telling today?" and folks will be eating their breakfast at the table and everything ... I hope it feels as much like a meal with friends/family as it sounds! =)

Very thankful for all of the help and support I've received on the forums and through messages. It is great to be here!

No crazy acceptance/rejection dreams last night. I did, however, have a dream where my mom "drove" a hovering chair around. She drove it like a maniac.

Dream update: two nights ago, dreamed I got accepted with funding of $100,000. Last night, dreamed I got accepted to two schools and won $6,000 from scratch-off lotto tickets. My dream standards are HIGH!

Sweet dreams indeed, Monochrome!! Yours is an excellent dream! I also had a dream that the adcom was judging my application in the way the judges deliberate on America's Next Top Model: "Girl, you're clearly commercial qualitative, but you're not as strong in high-fashion quantitative. Your qualitative edged out your quantitative. That's why you're going home today ... "
