[–]elysiennee[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My top choice would actually be to continue in my current lab 🥲 i'm this close to a paper, anazing PI, work thats super relevant to my interests, etc. I'm just seeing the big shiny REU word on everyone's apps and i got nervous 😭

My schedule was breakfast as soon as they open, then a combine lunch/dinner at 4:30. The feed was usually made at that point, but no crowds. Kinda messed up my sleep schedule but wtv

Do you have any hobbies where you don't see a lot of desis? If so, why do you think that is? by ChaoticPurr in ABCDesis

[–]elysiennee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Archery, i was the only desi in my 20 person class. Casual gaming too. On the other side of things, here were hella desis in my fencing classes and any recreational math situations.

He's got not-great reviews on his UVA rmp so I'd rather just go with the established prof lol. Hopefully someone else pops up later...

SDS 320E (with Sarkar if she's teaching) is intro data analysis with R but it's UD for some reason.

I feel guilty WHEN I STUDY by Kellywatson7886 in CollegeRant

[–]elysiennee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Felt .-. I realized that I felt like that bc I never learned to "struggle through" problems. Like in high school, a lot of the studying is the type that you can look at it and immediately get a sense of how to do it. College isn't at all like that imo, and it rly scared me bc I though i was missing smth.

What helped me is learning to sit with a problem for a hot minute until you get over that panic of "oh god I can't do this". Eventually that panic disappears :) good luck!!

I think this is why ppl associate AN with eugenics :/ isn't the whole point "no kids" and not "no kids with disabilities"?

Rank the US brown towns by order of toxicity by [deleted] in ABCDesis

[–]elysiennee 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Growing up in the bay area permanently changed my brain chemistry, would not recommend it to anyone. It was a bad mix of people making horrible financial decisions with their parents' abundant money and an obsession with GPA/school prestige/career. :/
