  1. Well I guess that ends my run this year. I'm going to have to try and find some research experience and up my GPA for the next two years.

      Girl, I know that feel, and I'm definitely having one of those days as well. Perhaps a hot bath with some salts will do you (and me) some good. I think I might just watch Legally Blonde and eat chocolate cake whilst painting my nails.

      If your SO's going to be commuting, I don't recommend looking for options in SD. That's one heck of a commute.

      Hopefully you can find a more direct way to get in contact with grad admissions.
