midnight snack

It's well past midnight and I just ate an apple because: 1) it's been over five hours since I last ate anything and 2) it's going to be a long time before I get to bed.

I am working on writing my research proposal for my post-doc apps that are due Monday. I had the best of intentions, tried my hardest to get everything done early to show my profs, but it seems that I am still scrambling at the last minute. I still haven't drafted my 2-page syllabus or course descriptions. And the research proposal is a mess. And I'm supposed to meet with my adviser to talk about it tomorrow afternoon.

It's moments like these that makes me wish I weren't a student so I could just go to sleep. :(
