8:00 A.M: I stood in the hall before lab and faced my assassin. I stretched my arms out and embraced my fate. And then it came -the clothes pin that sealed my fate. It was what I had been trying to avoid for so long, but now it felt like freedom. Freedom from the game of assassin that had consumed me for the past 48 hours. Now I can finally lock in for my paper. Fr was getting sick of that game.
9-12 A.M.: We had a pretty relaxed day in lab. I characterized some metal complexes, got some cool crystals in my vials, and worked a bit on my paper.
7 P.M.: PSET time. I grinded out my orgo and spent the rest of the time looking for gyms (lifting+mma) in the new city I’m moving to. I found a pretty dope gym, but the membership is expensive. We’ll see if it works out.
10: Staring at this piece of art for 2 hours gave me the motivation to go back to my dorm and hit a workout. And that’s what I did. I took my weights to an unoccupied wing, turned my phone’s volume all the way up, and blasted Future. Best workout I’ve had the whole program -also why I didn’t get my blog done on time; sorry about that.
11: I showered, extended my duolingo streak, and collapsed on my bed.
