Ph.D. Candidate!!!!! Never, ever, ever again will I take exams. Holy shit. Who wants to go through that twice? Oh wait, I went through the oral exam twice... but never want to do the whole process again.

"Invest in yourself." That's what my adviser said. "And don't spend too much time on your application." Kind of hard not to do that when you're reading GradCafe...

Acceptance to Top Choice! How much sleep can I get this week? Probably none! *happy dance*

ACCEPTED. Alas.... no funding. Thank goodness I'm still waiting for the school on the other side of the fence.

Apologies to those who have tried to send me a PM for a while- just noticed that my inbox was full. Feel free to try me again!

Do not underestimate your colleagues- they can be powerful supporters, willing to help your career in whatever ways they can.

Finally, after 3 cycles, I am at peace. You know you have the right adviser when s/he can truly put a smile on your face.

i am completely dying here now that 3 of my "still-waiting" schools are making noises this week. The 4th is completely silent and I'm sure that one is a rejection.

I love my adviser's incredible networking skills. So savvy!

I seriosuly have the best support that I could ever possibly ask for. The H in the PhD does not mean "hell," it's 'heaven."

Is it Monday yet?
-
It's incredible when you feel, quite literally, mentally connected to your adviser- like you can finish her sentences one of these days.

It's the weekend? Can we please fast forward to Monday?
