TAKING THE BIG UGLY PLUNGE
I am applying to grad school.
AHHHHHH!!!!!
The grad school part doesn't scare me ... bums me out, yes. Scare me, no. It's the paying for grad school part that frightens me!
As it is, I have student loans up the wazooo. Now, I'm going to add more to them? I will be living a 864 square foot apartment until I'm 80 at the rate I'm going. In fact, I can see it now. I will be the first 80 year old woman to be featured on HGTV's Property Virgin! I'll be looking at lovely two-bedroom starter homes/fixer uppers on Skid Row.
I thought maybe I could just marry rich ... that some man would take pity on me, agree to pay my education debts, and put me into the lifestyle to which I'd like to be accustomed.
That doesn't seem to be working for me either.
So, instead, I will eat Ramon noodles for the rest of my life, but by gosh, I will be a highly qualified, yet working poor teacher!
The parents are so proud ...
