The Wild Life and Times of a Botanical Geek

Well, I did it. I've officially put in my application for grad school.

I am simultaneously relieved and very stressed out. Relieved because, well, that's one less monkey off my back. Stressed because now I get to fret and worry and wait to see if the singular spot in the department will go to me or not, and whether or not I've made a huge mistake by applying to only one school.

I guess I'll find out in the coming weeks. Wish me luck. <3

In the meantime, I'll sit and try to relax a little. Particularly since Arnold's in my lap and is stubbornly refusing to let me get up and do something productive. He is bound and determined to have a lap tonight and lounge in comfort, damnit!

Ohmanohmanohmanohmanohman.

I just signed up for the GRE. It's planned for September 1st at high noon.

To be concise, I'M A LITTLE NERVOUS.

If nothing else, it's the sign that I'm committed to starting the path to grad school. But still. Gotta start studying now now now OMG I've forgotten all my math and how to do a speed essay and I'm so gonna die it's gonna be a spectacular crash and burn OMGOMGOMGEEEEE.
