Did you ever get good news at a bad time, and then the bad timing won out over the good news? Yep. I didn’t like it either.
I just got a note from the University of Texas saying that I made their TA pool. I don’t exactly have a TAship, but I do have the opportunity of being a TA if a prof wants to work with me. Let me change that. …if a prof wants me to be their slave.
Here’s the problem. I have to send in my acceptance letters to OU by Thursday this week, and I officially declined my acceptance into UT last week! What in the world is going on?! I’m so confused. I so mad at UT’s administration that I wanted to throw something at the wall last night. I didn’t. I didn’t even sob or stamp my feet or hit anything. On the whole, I think I handled it fairly well.
In the meantime, please, pray for the situation. I want to do the right thing. I want to be fiancially responsible; I want to stay connected with family and friends; and I want to get a decent job when I graduate that can be a calling. Although, working at a public library and forgetting the archaeology digs, ancient langauages, and academic competition is looking better every day.
