readjusting
The readjustment to life at school post winter break has been a little rougher than I’d expected. My calendar has been filled wall to wall for the past week, and while I can’t say it’s bad, it’s definitely exhausting.
Going from spending four weeks being lazy to running life at 100 mph while applying for jobs, reconnecting with friends, adjusting to new professors and course content, and otherwise trying to stay on top of things is a bit of a stretch. Already the summer seems to be fast approaching which means the job pressure has been ratcheted up high, and with the economy the way it is, lots of people seem to be on edge. (Although, on the flip side of that, many of my friends have decided to forgo the typical recruiting circus and are doing more relaxed network job searches).
I’m planning to write more here about my new classes and other things going on this semester in the coming days. Apologies for the relative silence of late.
(PS – if you’re an R1 admit from this year, congrats… have talked to a few of you on twitter already. If you’re weighing whether or not to attend your admit weekend, I’d strongly encourage you to do so. I made many good friends that weekend)
