So, I met with my adviser today. He was super nice and encouraging, but holy shit, I have to e-mail a bunch of faculty asking them to be on my exam committee, and the whole thought of it makes me nervous as all get-out. I'm gradually getting better at e-mail (read: I don't have panic attacks at the thought of checking it at the moment) but e-mailing professors is still wildly stressful for me. That, plus all the papers that I need to write....*sigh* This school year can't end quickly enough for me. That, plus the fact that I think I've effed up this funding thing for GPSF and my incompetent French teaching today--I just feel kind of failure-esque today.
Guess I just have to hope tomorrow is better.
Even
After
All this time
The sun never says to the earth,
"You owe
Me."
Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the
Whole
Sky.
