I had an annoying day. There is a girl in my office who got an attitude with me because, for the second day in a row, I asked if anyone wanted to make plans for the evening. She informed me that I wasn’t going to cut it in grad school if I was going out on the town every night. She can bite me. I asked yesterday and no one was going out, so I went home and worked ahead on some classes. Hence, I did not feel bad asking the same question today. Tonight, I turned on my computer and I had a message telling me that I was in store for a “hardcore wakeup call” someday soon.
This is coming from the girl who has to defend her master’s thesis soon and is thus freaking out because she didn’t work on it all summer. It’s not my fault you’re behind, and not everyone in the office is in your shoes. The fact is, I’m staying on task and I am fully capable of the work that is ahead of me. Furthermore, she has no idea what my talents are or my work ethic or anything of the sort. She can get over herself.

When she eventually sees that you have done well academically, and managed to maintain a social life as well, perhaps she will realise her mistake… If you don’t take a moment now and then to unwind, your academic studies can definitely suffer.
Blogs are great for getting this sort of issue out of your head, I’d go mad without mine sometimes.

Wow. Sounds like someone else needs a “hardcore wakeup call”.
