job musings

I get really freaked out whenever I have to send out important-sounding emails to professors around Singapore (well the western part, mostly). There's this huge mailing list of extremely brainy people that I have to forward the email to,
and I keep re-reading every word and syllable to make sure I don't end up saying something stupid-sounding. Or make a wrong assumption which my prof will simply overwrite in a later email. Which he loves to do.

Went to Biz canteen at dinner time to meet up with project-mates for a discussion. Reached early and took out the research paper to start to read, which I was supposed to have already finished. Halfway through the extremely poorly-worded paper, I dozed off in the middle of the noisy canteen with poor lighting and which constantly smells of soy sauce. Woke up hoping no one noticed.

My right eyelid is twitching really often these days. And I think I see more white hairs growing out of my diminishing crop. Sighs.
