La Vie En Rose for 2006 October 5

I think the irony of it all is that I DID manage to get all the application materials gathered in time... but it wasn't sent by the coordinator by midnight. Still, there's hope. It seems like such a small thing... Anyway, perhaps the really amazing thing is that I did something that seemed at first quite impossible.

Now I am working on all the other applications that are coming up, in between french homework, papers, reading... Luckily only two more this month, and hopefully I'll be done with the rest in November. The good thing now I already have all the references, personal statement, research statement done, though I'll have to work on a more detailed research propsal and writing sample. It's annoying that I'm only half-way through this program so only have half of what I'd like to show for it. It's so much easier to apply when one is finished with one's degree. Also wouldn't it make things much easier is transcripts transfered schools along with students? Then one would only have to order one set of transcripts, from the school one is currently attending, elimiating the need for frantic rush orders and running about the continent. But then, I guess, how would they rip you off?
