Camp Site!

Oh goodness.

Um. Well, I was reminded recently of something I had seen years ago, during some cracked-out finals period, and I have been trying to find it, and the wife *wins* because she did it. Yay!!



ahaha, eee, it's so, so wrong, in the funniest sort of way possible.

And apparently, it is coming back, or did come back in 2006, according to BBC.

Camp Site!

Wow

Holy fucking fuck. I'm completely done applying to graduate schools. That was exhausting. And expensive. I really hate forms. Especially when there are lots of them, with lots of instructions, and they take hours to read, and you take hours answering the same types of questions, but each school wants a slightly different sort of response, and then you realize that, hey, that word limit was actually a character limit, *fuck*.

Yup. So, it's done. Now we wait. And nail-bite. Or do something hopefully more productive. Like send in that financial form so I don't have to pay the Berkeley application fee... That would be a smart thing to finish, huh? Yup. Good thing it's not due yet.

It was surprisingly difficult applying from a foreign country, where I have extremely limited access to stuff that might have been useful, aside from online records and course descriptions. Like, old notes? Old syllabi? Phone calls that don't cost an arm, leg, and first-born? Huh.

Things I should have learned by now (that I knew I should have done, but, yeah, what can you do besides try?):
- Don't procrastinate so much, you'll kick yourself for it later. Start. Early.
- When it comes to applications/projects/anything that requires paperwork and has a deadline, organized lists really really help. I did this, sort of, but, there was just so much different information in so many different places that I let it overwhelm me a bit. Oy.

Camp Site!

Nearly There

Today/Tonight is going to be tough.

Honors Papers are due tomorrow. I have a meeting with a professor at 10 am and need to have most if not all of a paper done by then as well. I'm nervous. I think I'm going to need to skip out on llc interviews just because there is so much work to be done. I need to get started now.

Bye ...

I'm sure I will be back later with a progress report.
