Told'em !!
Yes, finally I told my manager that the recommendations he wrote and the interview he helped me prep resulted into an admit. I had anticipated some mixed feelings, but I was glad to see him happy for me. WOW ! He's been one of the better people I've worked with and though I have not put in my papers officially, I felt morally compelled to tell him 2 months in advance so that he, my team and the customer all have time enough plan for projects.
Ok, so the tougher part is done, but list of to-do doesn't seem scary at the moment , I've decided on my housing, almost decided on my room-mate, have been talking to an interesting mentor and will send in my FRS and documents tomorrow so all that remains is sit back and plan one more Heritage tour. I know I am sounding like a freak but that's the whole thing about diversity !
