Of Ginger, grad. student, mother to three, and messy housekeeper. Yeah life is feeling a tad bit much lately.
Today's To Do List:
work with Umberto on letters
do wax paper leaves
roast pumpkin seeds
do math with Umberto
make pumpkin cookies
write a paragraph on my concepts of class
study for GRE
start Foucault paper
finish two books
Excercise
It's intimadating to just look at but I keep reminding myself I thrive under pressure. And honestly I do. I finished my statement of purpose, read two books over the weekend, and nearly completed two applications. Oh we narrowed down where we are applying....Florida State, Chapell Hill, and SUNY Buffalo for H and Syracuse for me (we'd live in Rochester which is right between the two).
And that last one is scaring me a bit. There is a part of me that would just love to be in the North again. I would be able to visit my family in Maine a lot more. I would be able to be cold (have I mentioned it's still in the 90s here?) But Rochester is filled with demons. It's filled with Joseph. And that scares me. I mean, the chances of me running into him are nill. He lives in Niagara Falls but this is where we were together. It was a big thing for me to agree to apply to Syracuse and then agree to live in Rochester.
If anyone is bored, and would like to read a SOP let me know. I could use the feedback.

like frog and toad, i love to do lists!
I'm not bored. On the contrary, I'm overwhelmed with work. But I'd like to read it, if possible.
Well like Frog and Toad, I too love lists but unlike Frog and Toad, I have a hard time following mine:)
Ernesto, of course you can read it. You certainly aren't expected to comment unless you want. I know the feeling of feeling overwelmed...
Frog and Toad! I love them.
Looks like I need a to do list too. I'm beginning to realize I need pressure to thrive as well.
I'd like to read your SOP out of interest but not sure I can give you any sort of feedback
So, can I read it?
