Ok, why am I nervous? or Some more pencils, some more books...

Well. I just did it.

I just sent in my application for graduate school.

Woah, typing that totally made my stomach flip.

I collected two really kick a$$ recommendation letters, paid my application fee and now I sit here feeling like the light at the end of that tunnel just switched on.


I'm excited, nervous, worried, ecstatic, you name it. Don't ask me why.

I just feel like this is it, ya know? This is the push to the end of doing what it is I do for a living.

And it's all technology related crap that I have to do and I love it.

The thought of getting even further into student loan debt was daunting for a while but then I found out that people who work in public service (teaching counts!) for 10 years and make 10 years worth of student loan payments can get the rest of it forgiven!

That has reallllllllly eased some of my worries. I mean, not that I had much of a choice, I have a BS degree that's pretty much worthless right now...

Anyhoo -- just thought I'd share. :D

Happy Monday folkz. :)

One of my favorite stories is when my neice's boyfriend was debating whether to go to college part time. He was complaining that he would be 35 by the time he finished. And she said "but you will be 35 anyway, with or without the degree"
