      I think we're supposed to be enjoying the sleep before grad school starts, but by now I just feel guilty!

      Haha! Honestly, I would rather be sleep-deprived and broke as a joke than be well-rested and working this desk-bangning job. C'monnnnn, fall!

  4. The spectrum of politeness to downright bitchiness in generic rejection letters is still funny at the end of May.

  5. Apartment search: stressful but slightly fun.

  6. Graduated from college today. Onward to new adventures now & feeling great.

  7. College graduation feels weird...

  8. So proud of my thesis defense today!

  9. Happy(?) April 15th! Good luck to everyone making decisions!

  10. Defending my thesis a week from tomorrow. Yes, it's just undergrad, but I'm still scared!

  11. Sigh. Can't finish undergrad without a bit of intradepartmental drama.

  12. Finally celebrating the fact that I'm going to grad school. Drink ALL the things!

      Yay! I'm coming to the same realization! Surreal...

  14. I need to stop eating my feelings. It doesn't help and it just makes me feel gross.

      Eh, some of it is legit family concerns, but a lot is me being whiny about grad school stuff. I need to snap out of it and try harder to be happy.

      isn't the acceptance reward enough?

      see_bella, I know waitlists are frustrating, but that's good news! I hope you get in! And yes, I'm definitely going to need the glasses. I've heard grad school does terrible things to eyes. Between going to class, reading, and computer use, it makes sense!

      eco_env, I originally saw it that way too, but when I saw that many people are doing nice things for themselves as rewards for hard work, I felt less guilty and decided to do the same.

  16. Accepted an offer today. It's all over now. I haven't been this exhausted in so long. Feel ALL the things?

      crazygirl2012

      Yesss. I just got home for spring break, my friends aren't here, and my mom isn't exactly the partying type, but I plan to drink ALL the drinks when I get back to school!

  17. Oh, a rejection. Just what I needed today.

  18. slowly coming to the realization that someday i may need to have a personal identity and not define myself by academic success or failure at any given time...

      snes

      then why go to grad school? hahaha just kidding. or not. I don't know anymore!!!

      Haha That is so true. The whole application process forces you to objectify yourself to the standards of the adcom that it becomes hard to evaluate yourself by any other metric afterwards.

  19. Dear dream school: for the sake of everyone around me, please put me out of my misery.
