  1. went to my dentist--the PhD app process is stressing me out so much that I now grind my teeth in my sleep. Ouch.

      It doesn't stop after apps, unfortunately.

  2. It's been a year since I found out I was going to grad school (for sure). Where did the time go?

  3. Going into panic mode about school again

      Thank you, everyone! I definitely need to make sure I make exercise my comfort in grad school instead of food. Damn you, Thai food, why you gotta be so delicious?

      Same boat as you. I'm now basically scrambling to save enough for my first 2 months expenses. In our graduate student handbook it warns us to start saving for NEXT summer too because we won't get paid from July 2nd-November 1st...dumb.

      I'm with you. 8 months of this confirmed how much I wanted to go to grad school.

  20. Why can't people just be who I want them to be and be what I want?

  21. No crazy acceptance/rejection dreams last night. I did, however, have a dream where my mom "drove" a hovering chair around. She drove it like a maniac.
