Ahh, 14 minutes to lunchtime. I don't know where all the time went today. I've been here since 8:30 and now its almost 1. You know, I have so many things going on here I'm starting to get real confused. I just spent most of the morning getting stuff together to apply for a 3 year fellowship. First of all I don't want to be here another 3 years, second of all, my advisor is supposed to nominate me so what I've been doing is writing his letter for my nomination and getting everything else together. Well, one thing that might screw me over is that I didn't need my GRE scores to get into grad school but i took them nonetheless without much caring so I didn't do real well on them and now I have to pass them in for this dumb fellowship.
11 minutes to lunchtime and I can't find my advisor to sign this dumb letter for me. I have this journal paper to write and I promised a draft by tomorrow. I don't even have anything written yet. If my advisor doesn't come back this afternoon I'll have to get this fellowship stuff done tomorrow, at the same time that I promised the High school I'd be there, which is at the same time as I'm supposed to be in Avon at some science and engineering magnet school. I think my head is gonna explode.
10 minutes to lunchtime and I've been really down the past day I think. I don't know what's wrong with me. I had a whole inner conflict with myself last night about how boring I am...I went to bed upset and for the first time in a long time I can't remember any of my dreams.
8 minutes to lunchtime and I can hear my old advisor's voice down the hall. His office is 2 doors down from mine. Yeah, that's right I have a faculty office now that I share with another grad student. The only two grad students with faculty offices. Well, it sucks that I have to reroute my way around the building to go to my new advisors office because I don't want to run into my old advisor. The other day I was crossing the street and he was sitting there at the stop sign. I could see it in his eyes...yes, he wanted to step on the gas and squish me underneath his tires! I swear I saw it. Hahaha he'll get his someday.
Awesome. It's lunchtime.
