Thanks everybody.
It's certainly nice to be able to afford stuff like my new glasses (which I just ordered today - they're cool - with purple frames!). The Dr. said I don't need bifocals yet - just take them off when I read (my reading load is really heavy and I was beginning to get worried at having to take off my glasses so much!).
Seeeeeeee.... I told you to be POSITIVE !!!
My mom emailed me (well, dad typed, mom can't use a computer) and told me basically the same thing, that she knew I wouldn't be out of a job long...which is really unusual of her! She's always kinda been the queen of the backhanded compliment. I know she loves me but her form of support usually is along the lines of, "I'm sure everybody else screwed up worse"...she finds it hard to give compliments.
I had been really down, because I thought it was a bad sign that my department couldn't / wouldn't give me financial support at least the whole first year of grad school while I'd have to pay out-of-state tuition (I'm an MA/PhD candidate so I'm going to be here a while!). This makes me feel alot better!
My friends are taking me out to celebrate tonight...middle eastern food (at a place where you sit on cushions on the floor)! It pays to have lots of friends who are international students - they know the right places to eat!!
