hey everyone!
new to the thread (can't believe my neurotic gradcafe behavior didn't lead me here earlier, haha!) I've applied to U Penn, Cornell, Harvard, and Princeton. ivy or bust. which was obviously a terrible decision, but oh well.
my interests are mostly 20th century hyphenate lit (Jewish-German, Turkish-German, etc) and I'm in Turkey right now on an ETA Fulbright. we just began our semester break this weekend, which gives me even more time to stress out about all this, woohoo!
Good luck re: Harvard interviews, everyone! Know that somewhere in cyberspace will be 20+ others compulsively refreshing their own email accounts, and take some solace in that
p.s., fgreen is a pseudonym because I'm *that* paranoid. though with the aforementioned info, you could find me on google in about 45 seconds. the world we live in!
