I want to be one of the guys that starts with $50 and turns it into $10000.
::grins:: You can do it. Just keep studying and plugging away - eventually you'll get there. I started with $25 and just tonight passed 19k.

Speaking more to your questions:
You should move up - either to a full buyin or to buying in short at higher stakes. With nearly 1k, you can easily support a $25 buyin for a full stack (or a $20 buyin for short stack play at NL$50). I recommend you do whatever works best for you - my initial experience was much like yours - I started by playing short-stack ring for my first 1.5k or so, then moved into SnGs and then ultimately into MTTs. I found the short-stack thing a bit less profitable as I moved up in stakes (I continued up to the point of buying in to NL200 with $40 before I completely stopped and did the SnG thing).

One of the chief differences you'll need to account for if you start playing with a deeper stack is that your decisions won't be as straightforward postflop. You'll have enough chips to have to make a decision on the flop, turn, and river much more often.

Good luck!
