Graduate Me!: My first visual!
http://annewasinnocent.blogspot.com/2009/09/my-first-visual.html
Tuesday, September 15, 2009. I meant to post this a long time ago. Here's a visual of the reading I have to do this semester. This is actually my DVD-shelf (courtesy of my step-sister) but below my actual DVDs you can a tiny selection of my books. The entire top row (books) is completely dedicated to my academic endeavors this semester. 34 books total. Online gate exam papers. October 27, 2011 at 12:20 AM. I’ll be back for more tips next week!

Shameless Self-Promotion - History Graduate Students. Aug 15th, 2009 @ 11:36 am. Mods, if this is not allowed then I apologize in advance and please feel free to delete. I have started up a blog on how to survive graduate school based on my own experiences. If you'd like to check it out:. Http:/ annewasinnocent.blogspot.com. August 16th, 2009 08:14 am (UTC). Why'd you pick a url that sounds like a porn blog? August 16th, 2009 08:45 am (UTC). So I could get questions like this, of course.

Graduate Me!: Traveling + School
http://annewasinnocent.blogspot.com/2009/09/traveling-school.html
Monday, September 28, 2009. Sometimes in grad school, we decide it might be a good idea to take some time off, go out of town, and have a good time.* Then the weekend ends and the inevitable stress and denial come crashing down: you have two books to read and a critique to write. Okay, not you, me. Did I bring my books with me? Of course I did. Did I have every intention of getting a slough of homework done in the evenings over the weekend? You bet I did. Did that actually happen? I will not be going out...

Graduate Me!: News/Illness coping/Review sessions
http://annewasinnocent.blogspot.com/2009/10/newsillness-copingreview-sessions.html
Monday, October 12, 2009. It's been longer than I thought since my last update. Oops! Sadly, I have just been busy. Thursday was a furlough day for the class I T.A. for. I offered up my services to run a study/review session since the midterm is tomorrow and considering some of the quizzes lately, the students kind of needed it. My throat was sore and my head ached something awful but I made a commitment, dammit! To repeat lectures because that is simply a waste of time. 1 Show up on time. I am your seas...

Graduate Me!: December 2009
http://annewasinnocent.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 26, 2009. The semester brought me one A- and two As, giving me a GPA of 3.90 and a cumulative GPA of 3.74, which is a nice jump from my previous 3.67 GPA. Anything I can do to make myself more competitive for next year's applications is gravy! Some more news. I was selected to present at the Texas A&M Graduate Conference. In which I'll be discussing a paper on music and slave identity in the Antebellum South. This is much closer to what I actually focus on. Again, diversity! I haven't ...

Graduate Me!: October 2009
http://annewasinnocent.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 31, 2009. Earlier this week I gave my first ever lecture to the class I TA for: Early America and the Atlantic World. The day's topic was tobacco and the Chesapeake economy, which I specifically chose for few reasons:. 1 I've always enjoyed the history of Jamestown. 2 It made me think of the movie, The New World. 2005), which is one of my favorites. 3 To me, the Chesapeake has always been iconic when discussing the origins of the 13 colonies. John Rolfe from The New World. I asked the s...

Graduate Me!: Just a quick note...
http://annewasinnocent.blogspot.com/2009/12/just-quick-note.html
Sunday, December 6, 2009. Just a quick note. It is a truth universally acknowledged that papers will not write themselves. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Just a quick note. Its Been Too Long! I am your seasoned graduate student working towards a Master's in history, specifically Atlantic history. I stay sane by seeing movies, going out with friends and having adventures, and reading illicit books for fun. View my complete profile. Graduate School Info and Index. My other life journal.

Graduate Me!: August 2009
http://annewasinnocent.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 28, 2009. Now that I have finished my first week of the semester, I can accurately assess how things will be. My TA-ship will be a bit busy, but not too bad. It has a lot more reading that I must keep up with than Western Civ. The class I TAed. Any topic I want is mine, mine, mine. Overall, my classes should be lively. Southern History only meets periodically while Atlantic History meets weekly. Lots of reading is involved, but that's the lot of a graduate student. It forever haunts me!
