Doctoral program, here I come!!

OK, so apparently I look better on paper than I think I do, because I GOT INTO MY DOCTORAL PROGRAM!!! And they're giving me full funding - all tuition paid - plus a $12K/year research assistantship for the next 3 years. I am so excited I could scream! Actually, I did scream, and danced around my kitchen yelling "yes yes yes" at the top of my lungs ( Read more... )

Yay for you! That's brilliant - I'm so pleased for you.

I'm sure the household/kids issue will sort itself out. Train the kids to run the household, I say, you can't start them too young!

An excellent suggestion! I do so love unpaid labor! ;p

Congratulations. I hope you feel as delighted when you're in the middle of Thesis Hell. :-)

Hmm yes, that will be the question won't it? *grin*
I survived writing a 212 page undergrad thesis, but that was 1) 17 years ago, and 2) long before I had kids.

Ah well, at least it keeps me from job hunting when my youngest starts kindergarten this fall. And the dissertation is 2 years off, so I can *cough* coast *cough* until then...
