I really wish I was not writing in this section... But sadly I am.

It used to be all my SO would drink. Like.... Really. Now she discovered rolling rock, which is almost as cheap but 10x better. I'm still a beer snob. I prefer our locally brewed beers first. I'm trying to make myself like cheap beer, but I just can't. On the topic of hipsters, SO is a hipster (sort of), but drank pbr before the hipsters claimed it. Does that make her the original hipster?

A choice between two supervisors, input needed!
thenewgirl10 replied to INTJ Sociologist's topic in Decisions, Decisions
Another thing, sorry.... Don't worry too much about stepping on A's toes. Politely decline, but tell him you respect and highly value his input for your project. Tell him that while you had a better research fit with B, you hope he will be willing to act as an additional mentor for you throughout your program. Just be polite and appreciative for his offer, and I think it will be okay -

If it were me, based solely on this information, I would choose B. Professor B is making connections as you'll be beginning your program, and he can take you along for the ride. He is enthusiastic and knows the importance of being realistic when it comes to publishing, so he will understand that it is a major motivation for you. He will be networking with other up-and-coming sociologists in your subfield, and will be able to help you connect with them for later jobs etc. -

I should buy stock in Mars candy because I have bought so many packs of m&ms to stress eat that it is ridiculous. I can't wait to finally go back to eating and feeling like a normal human

Today is one of those days where focusing on anything is impossible. I just want to find out if I got in at this point. It's mardi gras, so on the weekend I will be busy, but until then I think I'll lose my mind. If I get shut out again this application cycle, I think I'll just cry. I'm so edgy!!! A pen rolled off my desk this morning and I wanted to scream. Everything is just making me so mad. Will be glad when this is finally over. I don't know if I can do a third round of applications if I don't get in... Too much stress
