Huge shift in emotional tone; submitted Michigan application.
Shortly after I published the Overheard in New York quote, I noticed the huge difference in tone between the two posts. It didn’t seem strange to me at the time. That’s what I get for watching too many Hong Kong movies.
In other news, I subitted my first grad school application today — the one for Michigan State. I’m hoping that I didn’t mess up anything, but I’ve vowed to not go back and look at it again for a while. I’ve got to stop thinking about it now that it’s out of my hands. I did my best, and proofread and everything. I hope either my application was mistake-free, or other people made worse mistakes than I did.
Strangely, I crave a hamburger.
