Yesterday was the fateful day when I took my GREs; unfortunately, I walked away from them defeated rather than basking in triumph. I scored a generally respectable 1240 (610 Verbal, 630 Quanitative), but I know one of my two essays (which are not instantly graded) is pretty weak. I know that I can do better, so I'm giving them another go a little ( Read more... )

My dear boy, I think you and I are in the same boat - our jobs suck, we're shitting our pants thinking about getting into grad school/Nursing school, we're generally depressed - let's have a drink and mourn together, shall we?

I heartily concur. Care to come over for drinks some night this weekend?

1. It's the year 2008 and you've just been elected President of the United States. Congratulations, I knew you had it in you. Legally, as President, you are allowed to have people offed by your secret service, no questions asked. Who will it be and why?
2. Would you rather go without washing your hair, brushing your teeth, or cleaning your ears for one month?
3. If Antioch has a Masters Program in history, I'd make you come and study under my all time favorite history teacher ever. (She even beats out Mr. Meyer). Do you have any intent to go into your degree as a career ever? Think of the possibilities.
4. While out walking, you are kidnapped. You are given the choice of either joining the Religious Right (or, as I have cleverly seen it, the Religious Reich) or the Taliban. You can't choose death. Who will it be and why?
5. If you could redo your life and become a professional athlete, what sport would it be? Also: Becoming a professional "mathlete" does not count. Sorry.
