Adelaide9216 Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 I submitted my first article as a sole author tonight to a journal. I'm sure it'll come back with tons of comments, but I've been working on this for a month now and I need to let it go and just trust myself and the process. So I sent it. ResilientDreams 1

rheya19 Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 I'll be done with my courses after this semester and can then just focus on studying for my exams and my own research. Adelaide9216 1
Adelaide9216 Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) I just gave a panel today. I was not satisfied with my performance and relevance at the panel but I was invited to it, so I decided to take part in it. I don't know if what I said touched the crowd who was present. Out of the three panelists, I received zero questions. (I hate when that happens, and it happens to me very often). While I was telling the entire story to my mom, asking myself if I should do panels again, I received an email that I won an award for which someone has nominated me, for my overall community engagement. I don't do panels for that, but it kinda reassured me even if I still feel anxious about this panel. Edited March 5, 2019 by Adelaide9216 ResilientDreams, PokePsych and TwirlingBlades 3
Adelaide9216 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I was really productive today! I really enjoy academic writing (for real!) It's the best anti-depressant ever, On top of that, I learned to day that although I did not make the cut amongst the 25 finalists for a contest, the jury gave me an "honorary mention" and I will get 1000$ as well. So surprised but yay! PokePsych and TwirlingBlades 2

Tako Posted March 14, 2019 Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) Just found this forum. Kind of curious, but since I've been really excited about the "road trip" when I relocate for grad school, I wanted to know if anyone had recommendations for fun stops between the southeast and northwest US. First time leaving the eastern seaboard to pursue what I love. ❤️ Edited March 14, 2019 by Tako
Adelaide9216 Posted March 15, 2019 Posted March 15, 2019 Today, I submitted another article (this time, one that I have been working on with multiple authors) to a journal. Fingers crossed! PokePsych 1

Cry at least once a week. And for Indian girls in my situation, the stigma is real. People assume that you're "defective". ResilientDreams and Adelaide9216 2

ResilientDreams Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 I presented a poster about my honors thesis today and it went really well.
feralgrad Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 I visited one of the programs that accepted me yesterday, and I feel much more excited about it! It's at a university that has a reputation as a commuter school, but the MFA program seems to have a really strong community. Two of the students there invited me for coffee afterwards, and they were so nice and helpful. After hearing their thoughts about the program, it's a much better fit for me than I realized. I don't know if I have funding yet, but they told me my odds were good. Keeping my fingers crossed! Adelaide9216 and futuredrb 2
PsychWannabee Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Haven't even started grad school (start this Fall), and I already feel incredibly supported by my (future) advisor. Adelaide9216 and feralgrad 2
Adelaide9216 Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) First article rejected. But I did get a few comments so I am going to try to apply them to the article and publish it in a less prestigious journal. Edited March 26, 2019 by Adelaide9216 PokePsych 1
