I received my acceptance letter to Texas State's graduate program in Literature this weekend. It's not really a surprise (their admissions requirements are not very difficulty), but it's nice to have official confirmation. Now I just have to figure out how many classes I want take while I'm also working full-time and occasionally traveling for work. I also have to decide if I really want to complicate my life this way. It's been so nice the last several years to be able to read whatever I want and to write whatever I want.
Now also is the part where I figure out how I'm going to fund this venture. According to the wonderful FAFSA, I can contribute $8315 towards my own education. If I had a dependent, that amount would go down tremendously, but I'm not really in the market for one of those. (That would REALLY complicate things.)
Anyways...I'm in!!! Yahoo!!

good luck, mz holobaugh. you'll be great.
look into whether or not post-grad education is a qualified withdrawal from an IRA.
p.s congrats!!! Texas State has a really great program
