Got into UCDavis, unofficially, of course. They are going to recommend me for admission to the Graduate Admissions Office. So there is a slight chance that I won't actually get in. Naturally I shouldn't hear good news so early. But I am more anxious about my future plans in terms of finding something to do this summer. Anyone looking for a newly graduate who specializes in research methods.
Three exams next week. Econometrics on Tuesday, History of Battle on Wednesday, and Public Health on Friday. History of battle is turning to be a lecture version of a History Channel special, so I have been (unconsciously?) very attentive in class. The only bothersome part is where I have to identify locations on a map. Really? A map? I thought the important parts of history were not memorizing the locations and dates but instead understanding the rationale behind events, (insert critical analysis things), etc. I am not too worried about the exams themselves, just that I have three next week.
Realized last Friday that I have to write my thesis. "Realized" is a soft way of putting it - I was actually startlingly reminded by my Thesis co-Chair that I have to churn out a draft soon. Whoops... currently on page 6. Should finish the theoretical section today and start reporting some numbers and charts by the end of next week. Wait, exams next week. Okay, the week after that then...
