I think if I could go back in time, I'd tell myself not to watch the last ten episodes, therefore preserving the sanctity of the first 4.5 seasons. But some people liked them!
Since you ask! My top 5 shows:
5. Battlestar Galactica
4. Buffy the Vampire Slayer
3. Firefly
2. Avatar: The last Airbender
1. Six Feet Under
Cough. I'm a nerd. I just started watching Doctor Who. It's good!

I hope you guys can access this
I also live in Tempe, the public transportation isn't great, though the free Orbit neighborhood shuttles did the job for me. It was reliable enough, but the people could get sketchy after dark. Personally, I think the nicest apartment complex in the area is Scottsdale Gateway, though it is a bit more expensive than most.
W seem to share a bunch of schools in common. Though I tended to lean toward Environmental programs, my background is in Biological Sciences. I applied to the Ecology group at Davis, did you as well?
And this one has proved to be the most effective!

It's a blog with really funny pictures and stories, it's hilarious! I invite you to read this for hours of entertainment and distraction!
Just a quick question for anyone who applied to UC Davis. I noticed in the results section that someone received their decision via the website. I've been scouring the site for a notification of any decision, but I can't seem to find anything indicating my specific status. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks!
Speaking of being unproductive and compulsively checking emails and the results section of this website.... I just saw that someone had posted to the results section regarding Berkeley's Environmental Science, Policy and Management program (is that you surprisecake?) and died a little bit inside, until I saw that they were just asking if anyone had heard anything. OH MAN.
Heh, it seems we're all being very productive. I keep seeing cool groupons I'd like to spend my time doing (paragliding, WAT), but then I forget about them. Sigh. Is it August yet?
I find that I've been eating. A lot. I'll spare you the delicious details, but I'm not handling this anxiety too well. I'm also running, trying to keep busy, etc etc, but I find myself mostly turning to food.
What about you guys?
You know what I love? Edible Arrangements! I once gave it to a grad student who helped me out a lot. It might be kind of cheesy, but I secretly think they're really cool.
