Today I am just going to try to get some requests for letters of recommendation out. The grad program I'm applying to only requires one, but I think I'll send out requests to two of my previous professors just in case.
I will hopefully get those out before 1, then I can work on my statement of purpose. I didn't realize that applying to grad school was so easy. Though, I think it only feels easy because I stressed so much about it and then had a breakdown the last time I tried to apply. I think I'm just overall in a better headspace now than back in 2021.

Working on my research interests for my grad school app. Anyone got any tips? (Side note: why the heck did I tell my supervisor I would have this in before Christmas?)
Southern Ontario finally got cold, kinda don’t mind too much this year when I don’t technically ever need to leave my house....

am I dumb for wanting to write about Percy Jackson igniting my love for the ancient world in a PhD personal statement?
quick grad school app update -- currently wrapping up my writing samples & statements of purpose to send to my recommenders this coming monday! my first deadlines are (crazy enough) december 15th. it feels like things are moving so fast right now.
Prospective grad student visit challenge (not a very challenging challenge): meet someone named Ben
You do not count if your name is Ben.
