Okie dokie - so I have been waiting to make a new post until I've heard something about my preliminary exam - but NADA!
I got an email that said that they are going to send me a snail mail with my results, which I take to mean that no, they do not like my work.
Anyone else have any experience with this? Is this just protocol? It just seems so negative to me.
*sigh* I guess I'm just going to have to wait it all out... I just don't know what I'm going to do...
New news:
1) Finals done and over on Monday. (YAY and BOO - I love me some school and learning, but I also like summer and working.)
2) Target has a sale on DVDs and I now own: Juno, 300, Serenity, Stardust, and Little Miss Sunshine. I loves them all - most of them I never seen before and I'm completely satisfied with my purchases.
I wish that I had more money to gets more movies, or that movies were cheaper.
Other than that, just waiting... Waiting... Waiting. (Hoping for the best!)
EDIT: (for update)
Well, it's official. I'm out. I tried my hardest and I really made an attempt to complete everything that was asked of me and it still was not what they wanted. I suppose that my problem is that I'll never know why they don't like me and my work and that's probably why they do not want me around to educate.
Sure, it's easy to say "It's not personal." but my work means the world to me and this is a bit of a blow. My goal is the same, I just need a different path to get there. After a whole year of suffering without money, without health insurance, without educational support, it hardly seems at all worth it. But it is. It will be.
Anyway, if anyone wants to read the paper/presentation I poured my life, blood, sweat, tears, soul into - you're opinion will make me feel better, but you're not obligated to check it out..
I guess, when I'm saying is I'm disappointed in myself. I'm a people pleaser, I want to do things that make others happy and when I can't accomplish that, I get down and hard on myself. I should have been able to figure it out! I'm just disappointed and I have no one to blame but myself.
Hope things are brighter and happier where you are, not that things are glum here, but these times, they are a-changing...
