First grad school acceptance: The New School, NYC
I GOT IN AT THE NEW SCHOOL IN NEW YORK CITY. OH MY GOD.
*does a dance*
I got a PERSONAL PHONE CALL from a nonfiction prof. (Jackson Taylor; he sounded like such a nice guy!) this afternoon saying WE LOVE YOU! It was a struggle not to start crying right there on the phone. He said that the entire committee was impressed with my application. He said some other wonderful things as well, about my honesty and my energy.
After I got off the phone I jumped up and down and them coughed up a lung because I'm still sick. And then I called Shannon, my prof and writing adviser. And then my mum, who by now has called all my close relatives and is now moving on to the second cousins in West Virginia and South Carolina.
Shannon told me that it's a really good sign that I got a phone call--it means that they want me BAD. She also told me that if New School accepted me then that means there's a good future ahead of me acceptances wise.
IN OTHER NEWS...
My mom had an interview today and she's pretty much been guaranteed a second one. YAY!
