Okay, fair warning was given, and now I may . . . is gloat the word I'm looking for? I don't think so, but I can talk about it to my heart's content.
So, in regards to grad school . . . . Friday Jan 16th I got a phone call from professor Munck at Carnegie Mellon, congratulating me on my admission to the grad school, and telling me some professors that are either interested in working with me, or available to work with in the fall. Woohoo, weight off my shoulders, right?
It gets more interesting . . . so then that night I check my e-mail, and on Jan 13th, a professor at Princeton sent me an e-mail, unofficially suggesting that I plan to visit the campus on one of their program days . . . . okay, so that's kind of a second grad school checked off . . . .
Then, I get to my apartment on Sunday . . . . to find an envelope from Cornell, including the support they'll give me, etc. etc. etc., postmarked Jan. 7 . . . WHEE!
Now all I'm waiting for is MIT, and waiting suggests that that's what I'm doing . . . I'm not holding out hope to get in there, because even if I do I'm not sure I'd want to go there . . . me and excessive stress have agreed to disagree . . . without conjugal visits, you know . . . .
But now I really don't have to worry, except I have to make travel plans to visit campus, and fax stuff and get ready for the ACS conference in Anaheim, and make my flight reservations, so i'm gonna be busy busy busy . . . but it could be worse, yeah?
