  1. Now I've passed my exams and am just reading books for my dissertation at my leisure, this feeling of "I'm getting paid to read!" is really coming back :)

  5. It's been a year since I found out I was going to grad school (for sure). Where did the time go?

      Oh man, I feel exactly the same. I got an email from an admitted student in my program the other day and it made me wonder how an entire year has gone by since I was an admitted student writing to first years in my program!

      The struggle is real. I have the same problem - I've just become like clockwork.

  9. my landlord tells me absolutely no male guests allowed overnight, and now she's asking me if i'd be okay to live with one, because another tenant left and she needs to fill her room. umm hypocritical much?

      I've seen plenty of ads for rooming-house type situations in my future city that specify no alcohol and no overnight guests (usually for females only). I guess there must be people willing to live in that situation though since I see such ads every day ...

  10. I think I'm looking for housing too early - all of the ads are looking for tenants for June/July! I guess I'll wait a few weeks before emailing people again...

      I have the exact same problem … almost nobody on craigslist is looking for somebody in August yet, although I faithfully check the ads every day. I used to write to every ad with a "flexible" move-in date, but even they write back saying flexible means sometime in the next two weeks. I was told at my visit day that most housing changes hands in August, but that doesn't make it less nerve-wracking to wait.

  11. I'm not used to having this much time on my hands... So I'm learning basic German.

      yay! Good job! I'm learning French over the summer as best I can in preparation for grad school ;)

  12. All rejections except from my top choice, which accepted me two months ago. Wow. I get to stick with my decision and never have to ask "what if?" :D

      For me it was exactly the same! All rejections or wait lists except from my stop choice, so I never had any choice to make ;)

      Haha, I try to make the most out of the weekends BY sleeping, because that's my best time to catch up.
