I also think I'm not overly bummed about the GRE because even if this doesn't work out I can always reapply to schools next year when applications reopen. The issue is I pretty much know what I want to do, but I'm not sure where I need to go.

I took the gre but did not do as well as I had hoped. I am ranking on good letters of recommendation and a high gpa to offset it.

I spent two days cleaning the room above the garage since I'll be living here for at least one more semester. I suddenly have a lot more room.

I’m officially done with the semester. I get to take a day off to read silly books and watch tv before I dive into applications.

I have a lot of work to do this weekend, but if I get through it all I'm basically set until January 9th. Go me!

I have officially asked all the professors I need for letters of recommendation. Everyone agreed except for one who has not gotten back to me. I could not find her on campus so I had to email her.

I just met with my group. I explained the problems I found in the original data and that I had to make all new tables to make sense of everything. They seem a little taken aback at how much work I did, but honestly it's easier this way.

I just redid an entire project because my classmates didn't look at the example or the guidelines provided by the professor. I'm a little annoyed, but at least my version looks better than the example because my tables line up better.

Putting together school applications is hard because I know what I want to study, but I’m not sure how to word it for people who aren’t me.

I am terrified of asking my professors for letters of recommendations, but I’ve decided I want to keep studying so this is something I have to do.

I asked my professor about some of the assumptions I had to make to finish the research assignment, but he didn't listen to me. He just kept saying I'm fine and kind of ending the conversation. I'm annoyed because other students got full conversations.

I went to see Hadestown tonight and it was fantastic! I have so many thoughts about it I don't even know where to start.

I have to do a policy analysis for class. I'm a little concerned because I think my math is shaky, but also the policy proposal I put together has a rate of return of over 300%. If my math is even slightly accurate, you'd be stupid not to follow this policy.

I need to get all of my work done by Saturday night because I have theatre tickets for Sunday. I want to turn everything in afterwards so I don't have to worry about it Monday morning.

Another revelation from all of these emails is that many of the richest and most powerful people in the country absolutely cannot write. Helps explain their sweaty embrace of LLMs.

One of my professors asked me about my plans for after graduation. She told me she’d like me to consider going into a PhD program because my work shows a lot of potential and she’d hate to see me waste it.

I have a class list for next semester. I didn’t have the money for summer classes, so I’ll have to take one extra class next semester to graduate on time.

My professor asked if I would prepare a last minute presentation based on our last homework assignment. Apparently I did very well compared to the rest of the class.

Making informative zines is a lot more complicated and time intensive than I anticipated. Hopefully, I can finish all my drafts by next weekend.
