The first draft of my first statement of purpose is done!
It still needs work, of course. And it's currently applicable only to one school--one paragraph will require minor tweaking for two of the others, and two paragraphs will need to be entirely rewritten for the last, since I'm technically applying for a different degree--but it is THERE, and that is AWESOME. Also, it's not quite a thousand words, which is excellent, because for a time it was looking like it would top 1500, which, even though none of my schools specify a wordcount, is probably not the best idea.
Yaaaaaaaaaay!
