The Good DOES Outweigh the Bad

Quick entry for today... It rocked!! I got 2 interview offers! (IUPUI and Wisconsin!) YAY!!!

I'm so thrilled to have 4 interviews. But now I'm realizing a cost I had not planned for... traveling, and LOTS of it. SO... if you know ways to get REALLY cheap flights (Philadelphia and Wisconin-Madison) , please let me know. The best deals I've seen for flights to both are ~$120.) Hopefully I will find places to stay for a couple of them... So the cost is bad, but I couldn't be happier!

Andrea-- Skybus has flights for $25 starting in April or May direct out of Columbus.

Oh-- and it's nice of you to be responsible with mom and dad's money *smile*

Hate to break it to you...but that cost for flights is really good. Welcome to the real world of paying for things yourself! But think of it as a little preview of what it would cost to get back to visit Dave and family if you decide to go to any of these schools!

So proud of you!

Kate- Thanks for the skybus tip... I had heard of them and looked them up, but unfortunately Skybus doesn't fly to the places I'm going. Their Philly location is in DE, and it was much too far of a drive from both G's and Arcadia. :( Oh... and I've been taking care of grad school costs (nothing like spending over half of your life's savings before you even get into the school).

:) another thing I realized last night... If I can stay with Chuck and Betty between my Northwestern and Wisconsin visits (assuming I change my Wisconsin visit date), then it will actually cost me 1/2 as much because I will only need 2 one-way tickets. (yay for saving $175!!)
