[General] Just So You Know
Jun. 21st, 2005 01:58 amI passed my Orals.
I am now, Trooper6, C. Phil.
I have advanced to candidacy.
I am All But Dissertation.
It's funny. My mom didn't graduate from highschool. When I was really small, my mom was on welfare and we lived in a cheap residential hotel in North Beach called the Taverne. There was hot plate action...and a bathroom down the hallway.
I never would have imagined that the journey I'd take would bring me to this place. I still feel like I shouldn't be here. But here I am. I'm what, two years away from a PhD?
Crazy.
Well, before I rest my heels...I have got to go to bed, for tomorrow...I have to grade...a lot. Really. I have 8 more final paper revisions and then a metric buttload of final exams...then everything has to be entered into the computer...but hopefully, I'll have everything done by Wednesday...
