Vexed over applications. I thought submitting them would be the last of my worries, and couldn't be more wrong. They've come to haunt me in one entire slew of interviews and incomplete application materials.
DISECONOMIES OF SCALE. Some send by test agency, some send online, some send by post, seperately some more. Of course some where some how some thing will get lost.
Been spending quite alot of time troubling people, figuring what is missing, and resending things. Resources not wisely utilized, X-inefficiency. And if they don't reach The Land of The Free in 2 weeks, I'm roasted.
The fear of not being accepted by a university is so real it's almost as tangible as the acid juices in my stomach.

It's been an impossibly tiring week. I'm starting to talk alot slower, use alot of hand gestures and analogies, and tend to repeat myself alot.
Job hazard.
mm sat in for the WD Auditions on Tuesday (: Had a really amusing time helping out in a skirt, and talking to Mr Dan about weird things.
Also helped with the H3 Oral Defence quizzing the past 2 days. I was lost in a whole sea of concepts I could barely understand. Familiar and not-so-familiar terms brushed past like fleeting memories: Epoxy, Peel Test, Atomic Force Microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscope, Propylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether, Photoelectric Effect, Electromagnetic Induction.
I actually looked at my own presentation slides again, and realised that I can't even remember some of the conclusions. Only vaguely recall Mr Chan having problems with my slides because they looked too childish. blehh H3 was everything but pleasant. Looking back, it was a really interesting experience. Of course, interesting is a very subjective term.

Tiring day tomorrow, some more physical trends and the likes.
Well, life was never meant to be a bed of roses. I think I'm learning alot, and the experience does serve as a catalytic platform for interview discussions, as I realised on Monday (:
