I finally got off my behind and started e-mailing faculty in regards to grad school. And the professor that I most desperately want to work with just let me know that she’s currently got an application pending for NSF funding for a project which – if it gets funded – is EXACTLY what I want to work on. And that IF it gets funded, she will need a student who is interested in working on that project and getting a thesis out of it.
OMGOMGOMG WHY AM I IN CLASS RIGHT NOW SO I HAVE TO SIT STILL AND CAN’T RUN AROUND IN CIRCLES AND SHRIEK?????
Breathe, girl. Remember to breathe…
(I think this calls for nightly funding rain dances. Pleasepleaseplease keep your fingers crossed for me!)
