I'm supposed to be starting my personal statement this week, so that I could send that out along with other information to the people doing my letters.

What was I going to reply to... OH YEAH EW to the staring at buttcrack, MattPatt!
Got to watch tons of mice perish today. Heads flying all over the place. 8 were slain to extract cortical and miscellaneous cells. Another 6 fell in battle to be sectioned in the cryostat.
How am I going to make myself a more competitive applicant... applications suck. I was talking to Drab a few weeks ago when I went to see his lab.

Or die.
Less blogging, more practice problems. And membrane biochemistry.
