Nov. 11th, 2008 10:32 pmIt's over. The belief that I can do math unaided. I had faint hope - but it was dashed today. [ side note - dashed was not in my online dictionary... it is now, but how weird is that? ]
On the up side, apparently I'm not half bad at this lit/language stuff. Thank god. Otherwise I would have had to drop this whole academic endeavor (and give up my pretensions to some kind of brainy-ness).
( for the curious, the actual GRE numbers )
I drove outside Austin today for the first time. Of course it was for the GRE so I didn't really get to look around San Antonio. But hey, I made it outside of the city! San Antonio looks like every other major city that has freeways. I didn't drive through any of the pretty parts, or so I've been given to understand. Luckily I had a fantastic phone conversation with D. on my way back when I got stuck in bumper to bumper traffic. Had a belated breakfast once I got there and generally ignored most of my scholastic duties until 8ish, when I assembled my packets for Grad School references. It's all beginning. GAH!
