...and we're back!

Fall semester of year 2 came and went and I failed to post a single blog. Womp womp. It was a killer of a semester with a ton of academic, professional, and even personal stuff going on, so my bad but such is the life of a doc student sometimes.

Skip ahead to now! :)

This spring semester is a few weeks old and so far its hectic, especially considering all the new things that are starting in 2016. Here's a list:
  • left my old research assistantship (RA)
  • started a new teaching assistantship (TA)
  • started a new position at the Office of Undergraduate Research
  • new set of classes, including a proposal development class for dissertation research
  • new living environment co-habitating with the significant other (SO)

Clearly, this year has hit the ground running and I'm just along for the ride. But its largely eustress, so I can't really be mad about it. BONUS: developing content so frequently for the new position has primed me to generate and express ideas quickly which seems to be translating into me posting more frequently here! Plus, I seem to be having all the ideas/thoughts/feels about this pivotal time in the doctoral journey.

That being said, Dear Reader, I'm now going to spend some quality time looking at the NRSA grant requirements as I work on developing my dissertation ideas. Oh, the funding struggle.
