Today I finally took my car to my mechanic (something that I have been meaning to do for nearly 6 months) because, a) with the trip ahead I want it to run and b) it has had a coolant leak since I bought it and it has become a real problem (see photos below...). So that is an exciting (and probably expensive) development!
Next, I am finally finished with my first grad school essay!!!! *applause and cheering*
I realized several things while writing it that I am going to share as an important reminder here:
1) Writing an essay is a lot different than a blog post or a story, remain professional or you will be re-writing a LOT of paragraphs.
2) Remember to write in small portions or else you can begin rambling and have 2 pages of nonsense that you have to completely scrap and start over.
3) Always re-read what you have already written to maintain the tone of your essay (alright, this one is the same as in a blog).
4) Be succinct or you will be desperately trying to reduce your essay length while preserving your ideas... and it sucks.
5) Always ask clarifying information of the professor before you begin writing and not after you have written 5 pages.
I did my best. Only time will tell if it worked out, I might even update it here!
