I Finished!!!

[Geonz]

I went for a second Master's instead of a PhD simply because I did my "grad assist" hours in a computer lab and saw how stressful it was and for what I wanted to do, it wasn't necessary. I could do the academics, it's the other parts (I remember a lot of 'em, like this poor lady who was trying to get Microsoft Word to NOT mess with her outline format because of course if it didn't come out EXACTLY as instructed, sorry, not acceptable).

But yay!! on getting the GRE finished I *almost* had to take it twice... called before applying for the second M.Ed. and found I had a week left! I didn't want to do it on the 'puter - I like being able to go back and forth.

I think I want to do a PhD, and I was told by one of my teachers that I should tell the grad schools that I plan on going to for the PhD, so the schools will fund me like a doctoral candidate. I'm thrilled that I'm done with the GRE, now it's just the waiting game to see who wants to take me and how much they want to pay me to go there. This is almost as bad as it was leading up to the test!
