False Alarm

AW HELL.
Apparently, the committee needs to reschedule my defense. I've been scrambling to prepare, but it's being put off again.
-------------
UPDATE: Defense is officially April 8th at 1:00pm

Procrastinating

I defend on the 23rd and I've been working on my defense notes and arguments. They'll tell me immediately after the defense if I have passed or not. I am just SO ready to get this over with...
It's not that I'm not ready or anything like that; if anything, I think I am much more prepared than 95% of the students who are defending at this point in time.

Over-prepared? probably.
Nervous? yes.

The Countdown: 5 days

Sorry, dear readers! Only 5 days until I defend. I'm busy but I'll post more about it after, FINALLY, finishing my M.A.

6 days

..until my thesis is due.

Naturally, I made a pie and did the dishes. NBD.

I should be freaking out.

Grad School Issues

Soooo its been a while since I heard from TWU and I found out that I can track my application status online. So, I started an online account and saw that it said "incomplete". Panicked, I emailed admissions and they told me that I was "missing" my GRE scores.

Wait. What?

The department website doesn't require GRE scores! Apparently admissions "messed up" with regards to my application status and my materials should be allowed to be reviewed by the department now. WTF, seriously? If the department made decisions already, I might be royally F'ed. I'm most definitely going to inquire about the reasons for rejection if I get a denial letter. auuughhhhh seriously people!!

I won't be able to relax until I hear back...

Home, Home on the Range!

Texas is really flat, hot and dusty. But I think I like it. :)

I had a really great interview for the doctoral program. The interviewer at the academic preview asked if I had heard back from the department yet and when I said no, she said she would "talk to the Director" about my application. She also mentioned that I have "a lot to offer the department". :) Please, please, please let that be a positive sign. PLEASE.

At this point, one way or the other, I just want to know. I'm dying because today, there was no mail due to the holiday. Tomorrow, the mail resumes and I am hoping, hoping, HOPING that something will come tomorrow.

I need it to come soon or I'm going to start ripping my hair out.
