Hi Alex,
I hope the new Pdoc sticks around for a long time. Dr. Clueless is originally from Uruguay so her English has a Spanish accent, but she's fluent. It's good that your new Pdoc's isn't hard to understand. Plus she gave you Valium without a lecture.
Here's what I do to avoid conversation: I wear ear plugs and headphones plugged into my Ipod (which isn't turned on, but they don't know that). People seem to not try to engage me in conversation because I'm obviously engrossed in listening to a book or music.
I'm with you on people sitting too close to me. I go to see a movie and there can be 10 people in the whole theatre and somebody will either sit next to me or directly in front of me. Which forces me to move to another seat. I'm really picky where I sit and get there early, so this really gets me angry.
I hope you finish your thesis and can get away from the campus.
