socpsychPhD

Hey all...it is my birthday today and I have a good feeling about people getting good news today!

Awesome! What specifically are you interested in? Are you planning on doing social psych research while on Fulbright?

I am also nervous as well. I lived in my Fulbright country (Lesotho) for almost 3 months before starting graduate school, but all the logistics of finding housing and setting up my research study has me anxious. That combined with the fact that my graduate advisor is obsessing about my safety has me a bit on edge. I am leaving my fur babies as well...I know they will be in good hands, but that isn't going to make me miss them any less. I am sure once we all get to our various locations and get settled, we will love it and not want to leave to come back home.

Hi furman6. Yes I am. Why do you ask?

Calling all Sub-Saharan Africa Fulbrighters! We have a facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/454776574596649/ Please join...it's lonely there with just me

haha...I do know what that means! Best of luck! I am also swamped in the middle of dissertation stuff, but I should have some time to do this

I don't think so? Care to do the honors? Would love to have a way to connect with all the other Fulbrighters even if we are all going to be pretty far away from each other.

CONGRATS!!!!

So I have been driving back from Coachella so I wasn't able to post, but I got it!!! Full grant to Lesotho!!!

LOL Thank you and good luck with Kenya! I have been to Lesotho. I spent 3 months living there teaching HIV/AIDS education prior to starting graduate school. It sounds like you've been to Lesotho as well. Where abouts? It really is an amazing country!

CONGRATS!!! looks like the dry spell is ending!

Long time lurker...was kind of superstitious about posting...but I am also waiting for Sub-Saharan Africa. Full grant to Lesotho. Looks like the waiting may soon be over. Thanks for the info GlamLeo! Congrats to those who have received good news and my condolences to those who received bad news. Sending positive vibes to those of us still waiting!
