Post-verbal entry
finished uc davis app last night at 1:30 (it was due midnight PST, thank god). slept until 12:30.
cleaned my room. have laundry in the machine.
my brain is completely fried and my arms hurt. in an ideal world i would sleep more, write some fic, and chill for a day.
in reality i have to email all the professors that i discovered last night that i would really want to work with (have no idea whatsoever how i failed to find them in my first six surveys of the faculty), write a response paper (preferably before 5 o'clock, but i've given up on turning it in on time), order more transcripts from australia, do my christmas shopping, and study so i can take a final tomorrow.
i've been looking at this grad school app as the final boss battle, the one where he beats me to bloody pulp but i persevere and defeat him through the strength of my heroic goodness*. i'm not sure if i won.
on the other hand, discworld rp last night was amazing. Eugene/ia is seriously the only character I've ever had without a martyr complex, but I like her and her gender confusion anyway. we all came in costume and had a revolution. <3
the Shota stocking and Eugenia's christmas card have been hung from the bookshelf with care. it's christmas time.
*also writing a thoughtful paper about my motivations and life story has convinced me that i have no heroic goodness.
