on grad school

The professors were kind enough to inform the group of us that we will not have lives until next August. We will read, write (essays longer than a novel!), teach the first years, and try to find time to sleep and eat in between ( Read more... )

real life, grad school

Holy wow, Susan! Either of those options sounds fantastic. Although, I really want to see where that whole Lily/Christ thing goes. So, I think that option would get my vote, if you happened to be polling the decision. =)

What you are going is amaaazing, by the way. =D

Amazing SUSAN! Don't worry. Robots don't have anything on you! LOL. But I can definitely understand what you are saying. I have two friends in gradschool right now and they are both busy as bees in honey season. All the papers and their dissertation is stressful for everyone around them. I am starting to dread gradschool myself. But oh well, the path to heaven is paved in adverbs :D

I think you would make a good fit for both. I know you love both fields and with passion usually comes excellence. I myself am in the inclination to study Speculative Fiction (if ever I do pick Lit instead of Art History) or Contemporary Fantasy in Children's Literature.

Growing up doesn't have to be so fast. Just enjoy the ride and don't stress yourself too much on the looming future. Cross the river when the water has receded and your have no chance of drowning XD

Are you up for your dissertation soon? Hope you have an amazing mentor. I've been told they can make or break you.
