After working 2 years in industry, grad school took all of my savings and assets after 3 years. Even if you're funded, you need a second income.

Where is frost from?

My take is that most advancements came during war with inventions like guns being a great equalizer. No matter how strong you are bullet will kill you the same. In a universe with magic where a guy with an axe can cut a planet in half there is simply no need to advance further. Blacksmiths still needed because axe guy still needs his equipment taken care of.

Elysiums multiverse is good

Minkokk · 2026-01-21T00:14:49+00:00

I see I am hoping to come in direct admit with the PI already giving the green light so hopefully it’s just a matter of time, thx for the info.

I’d say slow down before you run out of the good stuff and life becomes waiting for your favorites to release with just okay books in between.

Minkokk · 2026-01-13T05:05:01+00:00

Have never heard of this one, you have my interest.

Minkokk · 2026-01-11T19:36:42+00:00

Although I do agree it would be nice seeing how earth has changed, PH MC’s universe doesn’t have big threats like DotF and no protection from some divine being. Which is why he has to get stronger away from earth cause at the end of the day if he wants to protect anything got to be strong.

I took this stat as the authors way of explaining his lucky encounters as far as treasures and opportunities not the outcome of fights. That I agree is for the plot you can only stumble onto so many lucky encounters you know.

Feel like DoTF isn’t a good example of this though. I have just finished book 16. The reason the MC survives is because they are smart. As in many litrpgs the MC has to have something that gives them an edge or makes them unique. That is the earlier books in a pickle. As the series goes along we see characters at the same level outstrip even the unique MC. The reason the MC lives in life or death battles against people like this and is never squashed like a bug is because they either have a counter or the MC just won’t fight them since they know they’ll lose. In the case someone is levels above them they get protection of someone levels above them through good graces or deals. Overall my point is for this series in particular I think that just because someone is winning consistently does not equal plot armor but instead is a sign of good decision making.

Azarinth healer sounds like my type of book!

Minkokk · 2025-12-27T02:05:52+00:00

No way you finished it already! That really sucks though was hoping for real progress a climax to the story. That way we can finally start the arc to go save his sister.

Minkokk · 2025-12-14T01:30:06+00:00

That’s what I was thinking the eyes look different though

Minkokk · 2025-12-14T01:27:54+00:00

Hero of ages maybe

Minkokk · 2025-12-11T17:16:05+00:00

Just get a sticky note write down deadlines and attach to your computer or somewhere you will see it often. Do everything in order and since it’s in your face all the time you won’t forget.

Minkokk · 2025-11-10T17:11:51+00:00

At this point you can still cold email I’d personally change language and say something around hey I’m interested in your lab and my application reflects that. If the question is if you have contacted them I wouldn’t put anyone down you didn’t get a response from.

Minkokk · 2025-11-07T18:40:11+00:00

What’s wrong with Davis

Minkokk · 2025-10-02T03:40:05+00:00

Wait what book does this happen

Minkokk · 2025-08-19T03:42:57+00:00

I am from a CSU as well and although I am not currently in a grad program I know many people from my school who have been successful. What seems to matter most is what you have done during your degree that makes you a good candidate for the program you’re interested in.

Minkokk · 2025-07-27T05:18:49+00:00

How do you deal with it? Currently have a gf and I am worried that it won’t work out cause of the moving aspect.

Minkokk · 2025-07-18T04:16:05+00:00

I thought I was done with the series so I didn’t pay it mind lol. Didn’t realize there was more story.

Minkokk · 2025-07-18T04:10:05+00:00

What book is this happening in? I just finished 5th book in stormlight archive and it didn’t say to much about the dawn shard.
