  5. Today is my last day of work! Where has the time gone? 1 week until England, 2 months until PhD studies begin!

  6. Accepted my PhD offer on the day of my last undergrad final (and received a very nice and prompt email from my advisor)! I'm going to grad school!!

  12. One month left of my first year. So weird. I remember just a year ago I was contemplating even applying to a Masters program. My biggest project was yesterday, I gave a 25 min presentation and nailed it. :) So proud of myself.

      That's awesome! CONGRATS!~ :) I have a month left of my MA program too... how quickly it flew by!

  13. I've been on hold for so long that I keep forgetting I'm on hold on this phone call. This smooth jazz has seamlessly integrated into my life. It is now my theme music.

  14. More scholarships coming in. Feeling lucky. And so the decision-making process intensifies.

  15. Officially attending my top choice!! :) Never thought I'd say that..

  16. I moved four months ago, and I was desk-less until a craigslist curb alert last night. Thank you, whoever you are!

  20. Made a very important decision today. I am no longer going for my PhD. All those pompous assholes at NYU made me realize that I'm much better off being human. No matter what I do, it'll never be good enough. I'm so done. Thank God I already have my MA. Now to get my NY teaching license and start teaching high school kids. :)

      congrats on your decision! i hope you continue your therapy and seek new and more effective methods of coping physically with stress, however. as a former high school teacher who hated it so much that i thought academia was less stressful and better for me, let me tell you... high school teaching can drive a person NUTS.
