so I played hallway golf today
lucky for me I had a UK golf ball in my bag
and while I didn’t play all that well
(I hit the ball into an awkward corner)
(and then I managed to hit the ball just inside jim’s doorway)
(I mean really what the hell)
I did make a miraculous shot
from jim’s office to the hole
I didn’t win
but it was awesome

but I don’t have a NetID for the online application
and there is no sign of a paper application
yet I’ve e-mailed about fifty different people and no one has any idea what my problem is
you must all think I’m really stupid
because obviously you haven’t answered questions like this from anyone else
but I...

So when I told my advisor the acceptance news, he...
He mentioned Boxers or Standing Stone or homemade brownies… OH GOD I LOVE MY DEPARTMENT.
And Alison’s face pretty much lit up. She got so excited and exclaimed how relieved she was and it was kind of adorable. And then she insisted I tell Dr. Sowell before she got a chance to. :B
(Oh god why would I ever want to leave this school D: but I guess I have to eventually…)

There is a dog outside that is been whimpering for...
Probably longer. I’ve only been awake for a half hour.
Same dog that barks for hours on end and just gets ignored.
Some people just shouldn’t have dogs if they’re going to ignore it and leave it outside in freezing temperatures all night.

“No, this is actually a glitch that we are experiencing with our server and are working to get it fixed.”
AHHHHH I JUST WANT TO SEE THE DECISION
DID I GET IN
DO THEY WANT AN INTERVIEW
WHAT
WHAT
I DON’T KNOW HOW THIS WORKS
BLAH.
Kansas says that they’ve made a decision on my application but I can’t find the link to it anywhere and I don’t want to keep emailing them back sounding stupid
no instrument lockers left and my old drafty house is out to get my poor violin
I should study for an exam but I don’t feel like it
so I’m just going to watch Boy Meets World instead

What a strange e-mail.
A decision has been posted for your graduate application. This is your official notification of your application decision from the University of Kansas.
But when I go to the application, the only new thing I see is a comma in an otherwise blank section.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN

here come the blahs
I don’t think I’m capable of being excited about my thesis right now.
Every time I’ve met with Alison, I just feel so lost and defeated. I don’t know what I’m doing, I don’t feel like working, but I want to have a great thesis—the feelings aren’t compatible.
And then she gives me suggestions for my FLAS statements but I’m so tired of writing about...

Rep. Barney Frank is a total BAMF
cognitivedissonance:
His latest interview with The New York Times is fantastic. An excerpt:
Interviewer: You’ve long argued for the decriminalization of marijuana. Do you smoke weed?
Barney Frank: No.
Interviewer: Why not?
Barney Frank: Why do you ask a question, then act surprised when I give an answer? Do you think I lie to people?
Barney Frank: I thought you might explain why you...
