  1. I posted this in the "What was in your mailbox today?" thread in the Waiting it Out Forum, but I feel like posting it again to let out steam. I got the official letter from the MA department I was admitted to. Apparently there will be another official letter coming in 2 weeks from the Graduate School. Anyway, in this letter that I got today, I the paragraph on funding went way over my head so now I'm drafting an email to them. In other news, there is no other news. Husband & I decided to wait until Monday to see if we hear anything and if not then I'll start emailing the departments that have yet to notify me. Sigh. Worry, worry, worry.
  2. Well, I spoke to soon. Got an email from the MA program I was accepted to detailing the funding offer (well, saying that they need me to let them know so they can nominate me for a fellowship) but... I don't understand the funding paragraph at all. I understood it on the phone, but the offer in writing seems different.
  3. No mail again. Starting to think I'll never hear back.
  4. I wish I could stop being so down on myself. Just because I haven't heard yet doesn't mean anything... Argh!!

      Dear empty mailbox/inbox, you're not helping.

  5. Dear PhD programs: I know you can/will accept me with full funding, this week. You can do it! I believe in you! Just one little email or phone call.... :)

      It's already almost 1pm EST and no news yet. Come on, next five or so hours! You can do it!

  6. Hahaha!!! This is me.
  7. A Crate & Barrel catalog. We thought for sure there would at least be my official Master's funding offer. Nope.
  8. ... so far... at 4:30 EST? ...
  9. Need to say it again. Week of March 5, I believe in you!! You can do it! You can bring us acceptances. I know it!
  10. Alright, week of the 5th. I will get into a fully funded PhD program this week. I will...

  11. Nothing like a shiny new laptop to distract me from applications! Yay!

  12. I will get accepted. This week.
  13. Nothing from any schools! Again.
  14. I'll be kind of sad if 11 different PhD programs reject me this year. It'd be quite ... remarkable?

      I would go so far as to say 'impossible.' Hold on to hope, even if there seems reason not to - for the cycle is not yet done, and much can still happen.

      I wholeheartedly agree with iwouldpreferanonymity. Absolutely right. I've told you before and I will say it again, "faith, keep it!"
