[originaltext]M: Hey, wake up! I see you are not in the consecrated situation,

M: Hey, wake up! I see you are not in the consecrated situation, what’s up?
W: Oh, hi.  I’m still in shock. I just got the green light from admissions and loot to boot.
M: Fantastic! And congratulations to you. What did you get? It’s the fellowship, assistantship, scholarship or something else?
W: They offered me an assistantship, It’s better than I’d hoped for.  The stipend will cover tuition, room and board. With that I won’t have to sponge off my folk. And you know in the last term, for the whole fee, I wasted so much time and energy in it, and now I could muster my courage to handle my study.
M: That’s great! So you only have to provide the round-trip transportation fee, vacation expenses and miscellaneous costs, because assistantships usually cover an academic year, which is nine months. Which school gave you such an assistantship, Texas U. or the other university?
W: No, Miami University.
M: So, you’ll go to the sunny South. The view in Miami is fantastic and you could have a fun time there.
W: You’ve got a regional hang-up, Burt. This Miami University just happens to be in Oxford, Ohio. But I could also enjoy another viewpoint there, and I prefer the Oxford sight.
M: What’s your field? Have you made any change?
W:  I’m going to major in Education, concentrating on Teaching English as a Foreign Language. What with working part time, it will probably take me two years to get my M. A. degree. And until that time I could save the fee or the tuition.
M: So, you are not following in your father’s footsteps?
W: No, writing doesn’t appeal to me, but I’m worried about the make up credits.
