I realized that my first entry had no depth. Also, the Tabb energy drink had not yet taken effect. I am trying not to drink those anymore – because some energy drinks can cause your heart rate to spike so much you could have an MI – but I really do love it. And it doesn’t tear up my stomach as much as coffee.

Today is relatively quite compared to the past two days. This surprises me; I really thought more students would be in here wanting into certain classes and generally lost… confused about everything. Maybe they’re getting smarter. But then again, maybe I am just lucky.

On the PhD application front, I think I have just too little on my CV for it to even matter. I mean, it doesn’t go over one page, I don’t have any true publications nor do I have that many awards. (Dean’s list as an undergrad does not count!) I worry myself with this sometimes; that I am too much of a writing failure to proceed with more schooling but everyone I talk to says to do it still. Maybe I should put it off for one more year and try to publish. OR I can apply and try to publish in case I don’t get in and I can reapply next year. Maybe next year would be a better time to start. Guess I am just worrying out loud right now.

There’s an FSU NAACP rally going on down below my window right now. They are chanting something but I can’t make it out – and I am not opening the window because it’s damn cold out there. Good for you though, people, good for you. Free speech is a right, exercise it!
