HelloEveryone

rejected, too *insert encouraging quip for future endeavors here*

ugh.. i got off the computer for awhile and went to the store KNOWING that the email would be waiting for me when I got back.. what the ----? I mean, I'm not trying to be crazy, here, but they shouldn't keep TELLING us it's coming! Had the secretaries just had the decency to say "piss off, we'll tell you when we tell you" then I would have gotten some work done today!

I called a little over an hour ago, and the lady said that notifications would definitely be out today..

Maybe funny.. but absolutely right. Also, I'm just a first year dabbling in some projects, and I mostly wrote to DOD about bio-acoustics.

I'm actually in the "Earth and Atmospheric Sciences" dept., working with a couple oceanographers that have really really broad interests.

me too However, you wouldn't think that's true b/c the first few times I tried the model, I killed off all the whales really quick. Then I had a problem with negative whale populations, and wanted to spread a theory about anti-whales swimming through the Atlantic canceling out my real whales..

I'm still (ludicrously) trying to work through some code for a whale population model.. but beer is sounding better and better

Happy hour sounds like a FANTASTIC idea..

As everyone else's awards are rolling in and my inbox is empty.. I'm losing all hope

I'm "on board". Oh geeze.

Oops.. sorry fluffy and fortytwo. I only doubted you for about 3 minutes out of the whole weekend, though!

Wow, I've been reading this forum all weekend and I've always thought you guys were being a little hard on fluffy and fortytwo, but it seems like you were right! I don't spend much time on chat forums so I had to ask my husband what a troll was! Well, good luck everyone, I know I'll be checking my email constantly today..

I agree - this WAS anticlimatic. Thanks NDSEG for saying you would let us know and then taking it back.

I just called the office, and it went straight to voicemail. So, it seems like they're closed? Maybe we're not getting the news today?

Oh, me too, etale. I was flat out rejected by the GRFP, so I doubt I stand a chance at the NDSEG.
