I got into a program

sub_dividedIt's an MA Social Research program in the UK. ^_^v Hilariously, it's at the same university (York) my boss went to 10,000 years ago just after the school was founded.
I'm still waiting to hear from a few other schools in England, since I'd obviously prefer an MSc (Master of Science) degree to an MA (Master of Arts). But still, knowing that I can go SOMEWHERE is a huge load off my mind.
I've been looking into starting level jobs in the field, too, with the idea that I might be better off using work experience to land a spot in a better (or at least less expensive) program next year. But if nothing pans out before June, I think I'm going to say yes. It'd be different if I had to pay for the whole thing myself, but I'm one of those very few lucky people whose parents are able (and willing!) to foot the bill.
Anyway. It's springtime, things are looking up!
Book reviews coming up in 3, 2...
