So right now I'm working on this statement of purpose for an internship... what, can't you tell?! Okay so maybe I told myself if I got this out of the way I could be more focused on that. We'll see. :-P 

How do you handle sad people? Not sad as in "oh I had a bad day today..." but people who are so miserable with their lives and have no way to change it? I have friends like that. (... since I think only Emily and Elizabeth read this I can say it's not you ;-) ) I find I have difficulty dealing with such people. Maybe because there's nothing I can do or say to make any kind of difference. But I have a feeling withdrawing from them isn't the best option either. And it's not like my life is any different, really... but I try not to dwell on it (sometimes). Anyways... I just wanted to throw that out into the universe. 

Also, I've been playing piano a little bit the past couple days and I like it! Well... I wish the piano was in the house cuz then I'd probably play more, which would let me practice the songs I wanna relearn, and then I would actually sound good! :-D (Those 10 years of lessons haven't completely gone to waste!) 

I'm gonna sign up today to take the GRE, hopefully in the next week and a half (before we go to MI the second weekend in October!). Yikes. I feel like I'm not ready, but I don't think I'll ever be. So we'll see what happens...

It's been cooler the past few days (well, since yesterday really) but I'm loving it so far! I'm ready for fall. Big blankets, jeans and sweatshirts, hot chocolate, preparing for winter! Yay!

Okay... I guess I'll get back to working on this thing. I wanna have it done so I can apply  either the end of this week or the beginning of next so my references will have enough time to send in their letters before the deadline of the 15th. Yikes!


Much love!
