Halek Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 Two people (I'm assuming in my cohort) nominated me for two ecology grad student association positions (one of them being president). I'm both flattered and horrified and unsure if I should accept the nominations. Teaching Faculty Wannabe and Adelaide9216 1 1

Adelaide9216 Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 I conducted one interview today (two left now) and finished transcribing a 3rd one (3 left to transcribe.) yay!
Teaching Faculty Wannabe Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 All of my letter writers submitted on time for the NSF GRFP. One submitted right on the deadline and I thought I was going to die, but at least she got it done. PokePsych 1
Adelaide9216 Posted November 3, 2018 Posted November 3, 2018 I hope meeting with my advisor will clarify things for me next week because I feel lost and I don't know if I can finish my article/thesis for February. Teaching Faculty Wannabe and PokePsych 2
Teaching Faculty Wannabe Posted November 6, 2018 Posted November 6, 2018 Let me just say this, fee waivers are a life saver and I am so thankful for them! Applying to grad school is too expensive, and I am grateful to be saving some money! I hope everyone is having a great week so far!

I ended up accepting the nomination to be the go-between between the ecology students and general grad school. While I'd love to be president in the long term, I don't have a lot of connections within the department yet so maybe next year when I feel a little better connected (hurray first year student problems) Adelaide9216 1
Adelaide9216 Posted November 7, 2018 Posted November 7, 2018 I woke up at 4am this morning and wrote the first draft of the methods section of my thesis. PokePsych and ResilientDreams 1 1
Cheshire_Cat Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 My mentor is such a great guy. He lent me his umbrella today because I had to walk further than him in the rain and we were going opposite directions. He is very attentive and encouraging, and we share a lot of the same values. It's funny because I was placed with him by chance to be his RA my first year, and I didn't think I was going to do research in his area. But now I am doing research in his area, and I've worked with him for 3 & 1/2 years, and I don't think I would be as comfortable with the other professors in this area. I'm very thankful that I get to work with him. Adelaide9216, PokePsych, ResilientDreams and 1 other 2 2
Adelaide9216 Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 I finished transcribing a 4th interview. 5 more left till December 7th.
