No, I haven’t slept yet…

… yes it is 0630 (AM) right now. Why am I so pathetic? (Don’t answer that.)

I’ve spent the last five hours completing an Army ROTC scholarship application, which required me to write a personal statement, resume thing, and answer a pleathora of questions. I also had to pick 7 colleges. [!?] There are so many to choose from, which ultimately contributed to my overall level of stress, worry, insomnia, and realization of an innate inclination to take the longest time ever to make choices. Sigh.

Also humorously notable (slightly) is the frustration I experienced upon composing a decent personal statement, and then submitting it, only to find that my login session had “expired”, and, thus, all my writing vanished. poof. gone. dematerialized. confecit.

That write/expire/sigh…/login again/rewrite cycle repeated about 3 times.

Hopefully the statement actually improved by the third or fourth time.

That being said…

Will not repeat the same thing for Navy ROTC application.

At least not intentionally.

I did take a nap yesterday; I am not completely crazy.

In fact, I am going to sleep. It is now 0632. Good morning.

Oh, and Happy Fourth of July.
