I finished applying to the NSF today. Usually, people would take 3 weeks to prepare for the essays but I took only a bit more than a week. The NSF made it sound like people are born to do research. How do they expect me to know what to do, enough to write a research proposal? 10 articles later and almost an all nighter (or maybe it was due to a miracle) because I wrote that research proposal, and it sounded like I knew what I was talking about.
And I wish I wasn' sober right now but I didnt' have enough time to get a drink before that TA meeting. Oh well, there's always the weekend.
