OMG... I just found out today that the OGS application is due on Nov 1st! Holy crap! I hope I can get my transcript in time. I don't even know how to get a transcript. If anyone knows PLEASE tell me!! What's the fastest way? I have 2 weeks to get it... I hope it's enough time. Man... I wanna kill someone. I don't understand why it's due before grad ( Read more... )

lol. okay, i'm posting for the 3rd time today, must be a record. Anyhow, I GOT THE JOB!!! While I'm exciting I got the job, I'm also kinda wary, cause that means I should seriously think about applying for grad school now since I will have enough references for some schools at least. Okay... let's take this one day at a time...

The interview was today. The bus was late, so therefore I was late. But the prof had computer problems so I don't think she notice. Then we went into a different office since the computer techinician was working on her computer. And the interview lasted a total of 5 minutes. With her asking me: what are your grades, what psych classes did you take ( Read more... )

So I finally got fed up and emailed the post-doc and asked him if the prof still wants to interview me. I get an email back saying they're still considering the candidates and will get back to me. Which totally didn't answer my question. He then emails me back and apoligizes for the mistake and says I should email the prof and set up a time for the ( Read more... )

So my 45 minute roman culture and society midterm was today. Yes, u heard right, 45 minutes. The test wasn't long, but some of the question were odd... or I'm just over analyzing it. There's 3 questions I wasn't sure about. So the 1st one asked us to list 3 factors that contributes to life expectancy and mortality rate in ancient rome. I had a wth ( Read more... )

Ohh... haven't posted in a while. Anyhow, life has been hectic. Just had an interview for a work-study position with a post-doc fellow today, and then he emails me and tells me the prof wants to interview me as well. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not. I didn't think the interview went that well. And he thought I talked too fast. So, no day ( Read more... )

Well, this was a semi productive weekend. I ended up finishing my Roman Culture & Society readings for the first two weeks of school, so bascially this past week and next week. Other than that, I didn't end up reading for my Social Psych class or study for my GRE (which is like a month away). Oh well, at least today was fun. I went over to my ( Read more... )

Miscellany of graffiti that appeared on the walls of Pompeii (we're talking about around 79 AD with the eruption of Mount Vesuvius and all that). Some of them are really funny ( Read more... )

OMG, I was reading my Roman Culture and Society sourcebook today and one of the assigned readings was on the design of Roman city houses. Apparently, there's a thing called the compluvium, which is "a quadrangular opening in the roof over the atrium. Rainwater flowed through this opening into a small pool (called the impluvium) below." And I just ( Read more... )
