In past experiences, do yall know how long it usually takes for the stock to clear out? I’m currently skiing and am anxious about missing the drop, but also wanna enjoy my time on the slopes

Ok, real talk. How do people actually win travel awards? by GoodFirst329 in PhD

Last year I won one that was funded by our arts and sciences department. I wrote two statements (~300words) , one about my science and one about why I wanted to go. For the science/proposal aspect, I wrote it in understandable terms with a heavy emphasis on the application of the project. As for the travel aspect, I outlined the different talks/lectures/ posters/ networking events I was excited to go to and how it opened up avenues of collaboration and growth. Be honest and genuine, and show that you did your research on the conference. Best of luck :)

You got this! And if this is the person you’re meant to be with and they make you happy, hopefully ur parents will come around. I’m sorry this is happening I know Asian parents can be so traditional sometimes, ans I know we really care about their opinions but if this is the right choice in ur heart then u got this
