I don’t think it’s terribly selfish to seek a little bucking up when you are feeling crappy. Or rather, I think that it is within acceptable levels of self indulgence. I know I didn’t post about my grandmother […]

I am so envious of librarians. So much so, I sought out a mentor who is the dean of my university’s library. I wish you all the luck in the world landing that job. Ok if I live vicariously through you?

You know, sometimes I think I post about struggles on here just so that I’ll receive kind comments. Regardless of my selfish motivation, I really appreciate it.
Also, I had thought about leaving her a written […]

Thanks much. I’ve never actually had a “you’re wrong” talk with a supervisor where I’m not the one at fault.

My favourite air drums song: (skip the first 30 seconds of the video to get to drums faster)   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeQAZsyucbQ

You don’t need the embed code, just the bare URL. Fixed! And that is exactly the song I was thinking of when I saw this OT’s title:)

HA. My engineer friends will love that one:)

Oh bollocks. Neither of them are who I thought they were.

If I were the kind of person who said +1 over the internet, this would be where that’d be applicable. I second everything you said.

I do have a role model because my advisor is a woman whom I’ve seen go from […]
