Scholarship offer.

I got a letter in the mail the week before the week of Christmas. It is quite possibly the best letter I have ever received (apart from the first ever letter of offer to university that I got a few years ago...).
This letter was an offer of an Australian Postgraduate Award to undertake my PhD at the University of Tasmania.

Stoked that as of March I will have an income. A PhD student's income. But it is tax free. And it is better than no income.

So come March (which now is only in like two weeks) I will be starting my three years of a PhD!

How awesome that you get to stay in Tas for all of your schooling. Who would want to leave that cute little house of yours? And yay for money! Always fun!
