I'm an NSF Fellow!!!

I just had to share the great news. I am now officially a National Science Foundation Fellow! I received news this past weekend that I was awarded the fellowship which is considered a great honor for graduate students and also comes with a much improved stipend : ) I immediately thanked God when I read the news! In fact, I had to reread the email a couple times to make sure I a) wasn't half-dreaming b) wasn't misreading and that I had actually been given honorable mention status, lol.

So with that, I'm feeling a bit more motivated as this semester from down under winds down (interesting how the workload simultaneously "winds up" exponentially!). This motivation is much needed as I have a mock NIH proposal due in class tomorrow. It's not finished yet..but we're getting there : )
