I'm still debating if I should even go to grad school and if so, I want to go to Howard University. Mass Communication & Media Studies.

I have one more year in this Masters program at La Verne but I guess I'm a glutton for punishment. I've started researching doctorate programs and I'm pretty sure that as soon as I graduate next December, I'll go back to school.

I plan on applying at a few schools though my first choice is the Claremont Colleges to get a PhD in Linguistics.

Me too I suppose! I graduated about a week ago and have been researching Doctorate programs since October. I plan to take the GRE (didn't need it for my M. Ed. because I had a high undergrad GPA) and apply in 2010. I'm thinking Clinical Counseling, but who knows.

Yay for punishment!

I just finished my Counseling degree oooohhhhh maybe 3 weeks ago and am waiting to see if I got any PhD interviews. I swear, I just like the pain. I'm wondering if I'll ever get to the point where I like school again.

I know I posted in this thread that I was going for a Ph. D.

Things have changed.

I recently submitted my app materials for a 2nd Masters in something I have wanted to pursue for awhile.

I am crazy.

This weekend is completely devoted to studying for my GRE - which is next week - kill me.

All of my applications have been started, so that's good. The first two are due December 1st, but I'm planning on having all four in by them. It's a little unsettling not knowing where I'm going to be a year from now.

I've been thinking about applying to Howard U. Grad School (school of communications) but I feel burned out. I'll wait and see.

I'm done!!!!

As of yesterday, I now possess a beautiful Masters in Reading and a K-12 teaching credential. My other Masters is in Education and my previous credential was just for K-8. I can now teach any grade level AND teach reading courses at private and/or community colleges.

Graduation ceremony isn't until January but I don't mind the wait. I'm just thrilled I passed & finished.

Now I get to relax (FINALLY!) but first, picking up my graduation gift from my hubby. My 2011 race red Ford Mustang. WOOHOO! I love muscle cars & I've always wanted a Mustang.

One of my grad school friends sent me this today, and I forwarded it to my PhD student fiance who thought it was hilarious:
