Bit of Ivory

Lois and Clark is the corniest show ever. So that’s why I spend the entire episode grinning like a maniac, right?

Writing sample paper is revised. It’s funny, because the paper I ended up using is not the one I originally planned. In fact, it didn’t even come to my mind when I thought about which one I wanted to send. But as I was browsing through my old papers this one struck me. The writing is perhaps not my absolute best, but it’s certainly not bad. And it has excellent research, which is specifically mentioned in the e-mail I got reminding me to send a sample. They wanted something that shows my ability to do “graduate level research.” The funniest thing is that I wrote this paper BEFORE I worked in the library and learned all the neat tricks for doing research. Go figure.

Statement of Intent is done. In fact, it’s all ready to be sent in just as soon as I hear from my letter of recommendation people. I have to list all three, and I don’t know who’s doing the third one yet. Still waiting to hear from my first choice.

I have another lead on a job. Fellytone is awesome! We’ll see if anything comes of it.
