Days to Graduation: 132

I finished the first draft of my planets paper and sent it off to my collaborator! Hooray! That happened on Thursday, and yesterday and today I have been working on my next application, for a summer internship program in science writing. It's not due until the 15th but I think I will send it out first thing Monday morning, surely a first for me. It's amazing what crazy acts the desire to graduate will engender.

Days to Graduation: 137

After a week spent focusing on an application for a science writing master's program (submitted not one hour ago), I am back on the graduation train. After I spend this afternoon doing all that laundry I let pile up, and running all those errands I neglected, too. Tomorrow, though, right back at it! For sure! Until I fall into writing the next application, which is due the 15th. But hopefully between now and then I can write the introduction and discussion for the planets paper I'm working on.
