Good news, everybody!*

I promise I will put a Kalamazoo Roundup post up soon. I just got back to England yesterday, though, and I already had my first orientation shift at my new job and I have an advisor meeting tonight - cross your fingers and hope we can work things out, people! I really like it here and I don't want to either leave or give up on the dissertation I want to do.

But, on to the good news! I got back and in my mailbox was the results from the University of Toronto's PhD-level medieval Latin exam. And I passed!

I PASSED!!

And now, back to the Plan of Study, and I really will fill you all in on the exciting things happening in the world of Medieval Disability Studies soon.


* It's a funny title if you imagine it said with Professor Farnsworth's voice.

YAY! =)

I'll be here for another 45 minutes, so if you want me to go over your proposal again, just email it my way and I'll get it back to you ASAP.

If not, don't worry! You'll do awesome and you'll get the advisors to agree. Like I said, if you have to, go for option b rather than a, leave a for later.

And 'Proffessor' should be 'Professor'. =)

Good luck again! Let me know how it goes!

I'll see if I can't get a decent Kzoo post up today as well....

Gah, I was just coming to fix that, and now it's immortalised. I emailed you, by the way.

Emailed you back. Twice, in fact. First email has your proposal, while the second email explains a comment I made in the proposal a bit more clearly (I hope).

Must run, as I have to catch a bus in ten minutes!
