Well, I did it. There's no going back. I sent in my departmental application for graduate school yesterday. YIKES!! What have I done!? Erin read my personal statement and said it was fine. Oh man, I have wanted to go to grad school for a long time. I chose to go on my mission before attending grad school because the mission was only going to hold its luster for a short while. It was go then or not at all. Grad school would always be an option. So I set it aside to go run around Argentina with a skirt, a name tag and a book for 18 months.
But now, I am on the education track again. I love school and feel it is something that I am good at. I have always been the type of student that cared about class, being prepared and grades. I think I can be a good student and focus. I had some pretty awesome professors and an advisor write recommendations for me. They think I can do this, so why not?
I don't want to put limitations on myself because of my own insecurity or perceived shortcomings. I too will survive grad school! "I will triumph!"
Good Luck Dallin! You're going to a busy woman!!
