  1. Making the final decision seems impossible. Hopefully my advisor will have good things to say to point me in the best direction.

      I feel you. At least you do not have to turn down your current adviser (I suppose). I just finished my rejection letter. I have butterflies in my stomach.

  2. I have my final two campus visits this week. I'm excited and also nervous about deciding!

  3. All of these important life decisions are putting a serious crimp in my ability to do homework and not fall behind.

      Me, too. My GPA is going to be ugly this semester compared to all the semesters when I was trying to be perfect to get in!

  5. Whew! 1st visit was wonderful. I can't wait to see the rest!

  6. This campus visit is wonderful and informative, but completely exhausting. Daylight savings time is not my friend right now.

  7. All of this snow is making me really look forward to UCLA on Sunday. I can't wait to get out of the Northeast!

      I'm trading TX for the mid-west! Clearly I'm crazy. Oh well, I can always do a post-doc somewhere warm right?

      You'll love it! :-) At the very least, it's great to meet new people and experience a new place.

  12. This good news from this week definitely makes up for the fact that I have a cold.

  14. It's a Johnny Cash kind of day: "I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars. Well I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free But those people keep a movin' And that's what tortures me..."

  15. "I rolled on, the sky grew dark / I put the pedal down to make some time / Theres something good, waitin down this road / I'm picking up whatever is mine"

  18. "We looked upon the present with delight / And doubted not the future would be kinder / And never knew the loneliness of night."

      Glad you liked it empress-marmot! :)

  19. Translating the Aeneid for class isn't nearly as distracting as I had hoped.

      @-hermes- awesome! Modest Mouse is a pretty funky band and "Float On" is one of my favorites.

      @t1racyjacks, I think you had said music was what was getting you through and I'm pretty much at that point.

      Pretty much what I've been feeling this past week and a half.

  24. This is where the impatience of my childhood is really put into perspective.

  25. Classes start tomorrow and I can't wait to have the distraction!
