I went to my new college last week, for some schmoozing and learning about research and funding opportunities for my graduate work. It's the same university that M.W. attended, so he's really proud of my accomplishments and especially my opportunities.
Lots of good food, somewhat boring presentations, and super-socializing rendered me with an opportunity for full funding for my entire graduate school career! The project is something I believe in, it's ecologically sound, and something about which I am proud to be a part.
Even with all of this good news, my nerves have been getting the best of me lately. Like super-acid-stomach. Bleh. I could barf. (Maybe that was my St. Patrick's Day Festivities?).
M.W. was so awesome and told me that I should not worry because -- that's why I'm going to school... so I can learn everything. He said that if I knew it all, I wouldn't need to go to school. My prof.-mentor, Lawrence, sent me an email this week too. He also said "Don't worry that you don't know it all yet... that's why you're going to school."
Sigh. Thanks guys. I needed that.
Peace out.
Dot.
