tu amiga amarga
Sometimes I feel guilty for sleeping all the time, like I am an "adult" now so I should deal with it and walk around sleep deprived like everyone else. But seriously, there is just something about my body that can't function like that. After last week being so busy, then with the conference I was running straight through Friday and Saturday -- all awesome, but exhausting nevertheless. And so a tiring week, plus 2 nights in a row of under 6 hours of sleep (and I realize there are many of you out there who function like this all the time, but I am used to my full 8 on school nights, and sometimes as much as 10 on weekends), and by Sunday night my immune system has surrendered to the bug it was trying to fight off that's been floating around our office. I feel like garbage.
Anyway, other than that life is pretty sweet so I shouldn't complain. I have a new motivation to dive into lots of research. I am pumped about writing some papers and applying for some conferences. I am obsessively planning out the courses I am taking next year. Unfortunately, I have too many other tasks that require more immediate attention for the moment to really get into anything the way I want to. I can't believe there's only like a month left in the semester already. I have almost survived a year of grad school. Summer, please come quickly.
