I"m actually doing it
« on: March 02, 2007, 12:36:49 PM »
So i started.  No more procrastination.  I"m applying for a PhD program.  I've contacted two out of the three references.  I'm about to track down the second school transcript (do I mention one course I took two years ago at a 3rd school for the fun of it?)  And I"m reading my GRE book as my GREs are no longer good.  Although I thought that since i had my masters I wouldn't need to take the test ago. 

I am so nervous.  And when I think about it I get naseous.  And then when I think about not working...well I try not to think about that.  And the deadline is March 31st.  Nothing like procrastination.  But I've made a decision and hopefully...well getting in would be great.  but right now I'd jsut like to pass the GREs!  Thanks for letting me put this out.  I can't tell anyone I work with.
