I Guess I'm Crazy...

By thePatrick

But I am doing it to myself. So, now I'll remind you all just why I'm crazy.

This coming fall is my last semester of school. I am done in December. I have turned in my graduation packet. I only need to pass 9 credits and I am done. Finished. Never have to go to school again.

But that's too easy.

You see, I am graduating with a B.A. in History. Thrilling, I know. Want to know what you can do with a B.A. in History? Go to grad school. Honestly, that's about the best option. So, like so many other sheep, I'm going to take the plunge and apply. Thing is, you can't just apply. You have to take the G.R.E. (cue ominous music).

Are you scared yet?

And, like any good test, you have to pay to take it. Hooray! Oh, and, since whether or not I get admitted to the programs that I'm interested in all hinge on these test scores, much like Ron Burgundy, it's kind of a big deal.

Since it's fairly important, I bet you can guess how the rest of my summer vacation is going to be spent. Yup, totally bought a test prep book. It will be my new bible. I will take as many practice tests as I can, and then in August, I will take the most important test of my life. Just so I can keep going to school.

So much for being done.
