Now all I have to do is grow my hair just a titch longer…
for the librarian bun, of course!
I just got my acceptance to the Master of Library Sciences program I applied for!! A whole week earlier than expected! I’m thinking that they were so excited to have me in the program that they just couldn’t wait. AND it means that I’m a FIRST CHOICE! Not a wait-list better-than-nothing (I think I have a bit of a complex from the way I felt in my last graduate program, what do you think?)
and…
They gave me a fellowship!!!!
It’s not enough to cover the whole thing, but still, it’s a chunk of change and it was merit based, which is more than I got from my last graduate program. They actually, really, truly do want me! I’m a Fellow!
Let me introduce you to Chicory, mynewschool’s Suchandsuch Fellow this year.
That’s got a great ring to it.

That is fantastic!!!

Congratulations! And on behalf of the entire field of library science, welcome. ‘Bout time.

Wow. That is so good and amazing and well deserved. You know, even though librarians might not know everything, they know how to FIND OUT everything, and that just makes them - oh so powerful. Enjoy the power. Oh and enjoy the scholarship money too.

I thought it was a space ship, or the grand opening of a nightspot. But apparently, that ray of light waving over New York City is the sun shining out of your ass… all the way from Utah.
Congratulations.
Librarians kick arse.

Yay!!
Seattle? (I ask hopefully.) A mere 3 hours away? A lovely train ride running between my beloved Portland and your library program? Regular required visits to said city, just 3 hours away?

Congratulations! What wonderful news!!!
You are going to be an awesome librarian.
FWIW, it seems to me like the coolest librarians hang out with the Intellectual Freedom and Public Policy committees at ALA.

I have been holding out hope that you would go to law school since you put the idea in my head in your first comment on my blog. While it’s a sad day for the legal profession, congrats!
