Happy New Year everyone!
Even-numbered years tend to be awesome ones for me and so this time, I have made a New Year resolution for the first time in ... I can't even remember.
GRAD SCHOOL.
Aiming for Fall '13 at UC Davis in Archaeology, emphasis in historical especially Gold Rush era California. It's my favorite :D
My second choice is Sacramento State, just in case, I hope it doesn't come to that because I really love Davis :D
So, my to-do list is quite scary:
- Three letters of recommendation (two lined up so far but I have not asked yet)
- A writing sample (not sure if I can use one from my current project since it has two names on it)
-Graduate Record Examination scores (DAMN YOU GRE I think this will be the most difficult part)
- Statements of purpose and research interests (oh man I don't even know where to begin)
- Curriculum vita (easiest part aside from the following...)
- Academic transcripts
Deadline for all these is January 15 (except for the transcripts which are December 15)
ONE YEAR TO PREPARE... and I know it is going to fly by.
Not actually too worried about writing a thesis since winning Nano, so yay!
I wish I could go back to college?
