[9:30am]

[[I’m currently in a lab; attending a talk given by our PI, and baby when I say I’m SO LOST. PLUS ]. YOHH! Also, I am TIRED! I have not slept since Wednesday night, and right now I am actually not in my right mind. I feel like I might just pass out at any moment. You know th kind of slseepine]]

That (above) is the gibberish I wrote while I was attending a talk given by my P.I. I’m pretty sure I dozed off multiple times, and she must’ve seen me. Argh, so embarrassing!

Honestly, I’m exhausted out of my mind, and all I want to do is go and sleep. I want to tell my mentor that I want to leave early, but I never want to seem as though I’m not willing to work, or that I don’t want to go the extra mile, y’know? But I’m wasting time here; I can barely concentrate on anything.

Guys, please get enough sleep. Sleep is so important. I learnt this the hard way in undergrad, and promised myself not to compromise on my sleep schedule when I saw how big of a difference it made when I got enough sleep. I’m a much more pleasant, more energetic, more hopeful, more joyful etc. person when I get good sleep.

Get some rest, and stay blessed.

Photo Context: Guys, I LOVE steak (cooked medium-well, please don’t judge me 🫣). This was at a really nice restaurant that my friend took me out to when she got her first big-girl paycheck! So proud of her 🙂 I have steak only a couple times a year, which is probably a big part of why I savor it so much when I do have it. And yes, we’re going to have to deviate a little from our monochrome them because I really want you to SEE this beauty!
