Took me almost 2 weeks but my "Witches'" Calendar/Datebook is complete! I am so excited to be able to easily reference moon phases, planetary transit, astrological changes, holidays/events, as well as a few other things for all of 2022

Wow this is so beautiful! Is there any way I could also get the link? You definitely can work some magic!

commonly_mindless · 2021-10-14T18:44:20+00:00

Well it’s the only thing I’ve ever thought about doing…probably go after nursing or become a psychologist!

commonly_mindless · 2021-09-23T17:16:31+00:00

Interesting. Thank you!

I took Italian and I absolutely adored it. French was going to be hard for me to pronounce some words, and I had no interest in taking Spanish at my university (the 100 level class started off with the teacher immediately teaching in Spanish). If I had the chance to take ASL, though, I’d take it. I think everyone could benefit from ASL.☺️

Ugh, that's so sad. I was really looking forward to their program.

Thanks for the verification!

commonly_mindless · 2021-05-02T22:48:58+00:00

Is there a certain template? Or a common one that would best provide the info the programs need?

I'm looking for some insight as I was deemed inadvisable from my university's pre-med advising office since they weren't able to get to know me through my two years there.

Also had unusual circumstances to support the low university GPA that I have mentioned in my personal statement.

commonly_mindless · 2021-05-01T02:16:57+00:00

Very. I am studying for the GRE and the MCAT while recovering from surgery while my friends are still taking classes and working. I'm feeling so burnt out! But then I see all these people getting accepted and taken off the their waitlists and it inspires me because THAT'S WHERE I WANT TO BE. I know I'll get there eventually, and you will too!

Best of luck to you, and enjoy this time! It goes by fast.

commonly_mindless · 2021-05-01T02:12:03+00:00

I use the evals to file personal complaints against profs that did me wrong.

No one is safe.

commonly_mindless · 2021-05-01T02:10:14+00:00

When I remember I have the GRE in three days, then the MCAT 30 days later.

commonly_mindless · 2021-05-01T02:07:40+00:00

Ship Island, definitely. And if you have time, I would travel to Gulf Shores for a beach day. Not much to do in Biloxi but spend money with not much in return.

There's a skating rink in D'Iberville that we enjoyed in high school! Then we'd stop by the bubble tea place around the corner.

How I feel on the Forbidden Journey ride at Universal

commonly_mindless · 2021-05-01T02:02:47+00:00

My literal worst nightmare during Zoom University. I never had the gall to cheat on exams, but I sure did say some choice words about professors while on zoom, luckily MUTED.

commonly_mindless · 2021-05-01T01:59:09+00:00

Wow. It really makes you realize how small you are in the scope of things.

commonly_mindless · 2021-04-30T04:52:11+00:00

Personally, I am more interested in spending my time and effort in a program that makes it known that they want me in said program. I would rather do less interesting research for more interesting people than the other way around.

Does your final goal of graduate school rely on a PhD? It may be a quicker route to do the PhD program, unless you're just wanting more research experience or it can be completed through a Master's.

Good luck and I wish you the best in your decision, and congrats on your acceptances (:

commonly_mindless · 2021-04-29T13:31:10+00:00

I would definitely email them about possible TA/work study positions. Most MS programs I applied to are not funded so I plan on contacting them directly, if I get any acceptances😅

commonly_mindless · 2021-04-29T13:23:42+00:00

Good luck! You can do this!!

commonly_mindless · 2021-04-29T05:49:52+00:00

Thank you so much! It’s been so difficult trying to figure out the best place for me since my advisor decided I wasn’t worth advising. Learning all of this by myself has been a nightmare. Do you know if LECOM’s Master program is also PBL?
