I'm going to grad school!
Mar. 9th, 2010 10:32 amI woke up this morning to an email in my inbox titled "Case Graduate Application." After sitting down, I opened it and found an invitation to attend Case Western Reserve in their MA program, along with full funding as a TA. I'll work in the writing lab as a tutor and then teach a freshman writing class.
Oh.
My.
God.
I really, actually, holy-freaking-moses did it! I get to go to grad school! Oh, and when I look at their MA reading list for last year, it makes me SO HAPPY. See, look!
