    You should post this down on the menu under Earth Science.... that's where all us geology folks hang out. Probably a lot more insight there.

    Hi all,
    Just a few words of advice. Panicked about the award announcements? Go for a run, go make a mug of tea, whatever it takes to get out of your head. Don't let it ruin your weekend, and don't stay up all night for the announcement.
     
    I applied last year, made myself sick worrying about decisions, and was bitterly disappointed when I didn't even get an honorable mention with all VG/E reviews. Actually, mostly I was disappointed that I had stressed myself out and still had to go to campus after staying up all night refreshing my email. But I was fortunate enough to get past the setback and find plenty of funding elsewhere, through my department and through other small sources.
     
    I applied again for this year, but instead of the panicking oh-god-what-if-this-ruins-my-graduate-career response for the next bunch of days, I am choosing to block related websites until the decisions are actually out. I wish someone had given me this advice last year, but I'm glad to know it this time around. So trust me on this: calm it down, and get out of your head. And congratulations to this year's winners!
