Efficiency machine!!

I decided last week to apply to Boise State’s MSW (Master’s of Social Work) program, which has the option to take classes in Coeur d’Alene, 5 minutes from where I work. I just found out the program was even an option, and wasn’t actively looking for grad school options, but have kept it in the back of my head for the last 3 years that at some point I want to go to grad school. So when I discovered this… I also discovered I’m supposed to have my completed application in by the end of January. I kind of didn’t even think about it.. I knew this degree was one I’d been considering, and one that will give me lots of career options… so I just jumped into the deep end. Within 3 days I’d sent off for letters of recommendation, applied to BSU (general application), and got started on updating my resume. I also have spent the last 5 days procrastinating about starting my “Personal Statement”, which “must be no more than 12 double spaced single sided pages”. Ack!!

Since then, I have:

Vacuumed
Exercised regularly
Done laundry
Done the dishes
Taken out the trash
Cooked meals
Paid bills
Wrote a letter to my uncle in Arizona
Surfed the web a bunch
Been more productive at work than in the previous 3 months
Commented on people’s Flickr pictures
Emailed lots of people
Watched Friends on DVD
Washed the sheets
Cleaned Mike’s bathroom sink
and,
Blogged!

I have yet to start my personal statement.
