1. Thinking about that job interview that turned into a resume submission (I applied for a research assistant position at the National Institutes of Health this afternoon). I'm a bit annoyed at how my possible future employer is handling the recruitment process but getting the job is going to be great experience for me and my aspirations to become a biostatistician so I'm gritting my teeth and bearing with the lack of professionalism.
2. Reading my class notes. Can you believe it? I don't get any leisure reading in anymore. The moment I hit the bed, I'm asleep which is highly aberrant behavior given my intimate relationship with Insomnia. Perhaps we broke up and I just didn't realize it. Whatever. Good riddance.
3. Listening to Jojo (High Road) and Clay Aiken (Measure of A Man). Can anyone say pop music? Jojo's "How to Touch a Girl" is stuck in my head. I know, I know... It doesn't sound right but trust me, the touching is not what you think it is. I love her voice.
4. Wishing there were more than 24 hours in a day.
5. Craving fresh garden salad. It has simply been too long.
6. Broke. It's a bit embarrassing that I'm borrowing money to get around but I think the GRE reviewer and black slacks are worth the...um...humiliation.
7. Loving my 3-inch stilettos from Auntie Remy. They are just gorgeous.
8. Very motivated. I'm doing everything without having to go through the entire phase of getting enough inspiration or momentum. I hope the fuel doesn't run out soon.

1. First post of the year! Haha!
2. Apparently, December 16 was the last time I had time and brain power to post something. I'm low on both right now. It's CAP-Stat week starting tomorrow, something I never thought I'd see given all the work that I feel I've been doing and not seeing that much progress. Teamwork sucks when only a thrid of the team shows up for meetings and helps out with labor. Practice for the real world, I tell myself.
3. I miss the family. Big families equal big fun but when you're suddenly separated from them it's big depression too. Solitary walks currently rank low on my list of fun things to do. The sadness is only starting to mellow now.
4. I took the GRE diagnostic test last night. Results confirm that I need serious review. It was a bit depressing at first but now I'm just motivated.
5. I wish I could skip this period of my life, maybe fast forward through the next two years. I want to be where I dream of being already. California come on.
