I think when you apply to be the guy that designs university websites you have to verify that you have never studied web design

happy autumn!
lately i’ve been catching up on research, reading for fun, and interview prep but late september, i went to california to accompany my partner during his conference trip and enjoyed an amazing mitski concert while i was there. recent goals have just been to be patient for interview invites and to enjoy the time i have in new york before i head back to california for a research elective. i love autumn and i wish it was longer! but maybe part of why it’s so lovely is its ephemeral nature.
also i made a just for fun substack if anyone would like to read it here

Why is applying for grad school so hard? 😭 Like it's not just applying for school, it's:
Filing your taxes so you can apply for FAFSA
Applying for FAFSA
Reaching out to your former professors for letters of recommendation
Reaching out to your boss for a letter of employer support
Paying for official transcripts to be sent from undergrad ($75)
Writing a 2-3 page personal statement
Choosing an area of research or research topic
Fill out the online General Graduate admissions application ($70)
Fill out the online History Division application
Revising 2 different 15-20 page writing samples showcasing your scholarship
Reaching out the faculty advisors for feedback on your research topic
Securing one of the faculty advisors as your sponsor
Writing a 2-3 page research prospectus
AND I have to keep track of all the different deadlines for each step?? Which aren't in order??? This is hell for the dyslexic, AudDHD scholar, especially after being on academic hiatus for over a year. 😭

Note: Not counting raffles/sweepstakes/lotteries. If you got top 3 in a competition and personally consider that a form of winning, that counts as winning.

Hello, lovelies!
It's been a hot minute since I've posted because, well... Finals are rough!! I've been so swamped with school I barely have time for self care, but we're making it work! 😊
I have exciting news, though! I am officially halfway done with my final assignment of undergrad!! After midnight tonight, I will only have to pay my student bills and then I will officially be Milo, B.A. in European History.
Don't worry, though, that won't be the end of this blog. 💕 I've applied for mortuary school in the fall of 2023, and in the meantime, I plan to return to Arabic, German, and French language studies after work.
I can't believe we made it!
~XOXO, Milo

Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate!
I'm alone for the first time this year and things are kinda rough, but it's okay. I managed to soak up at least a little bit of sun and finally get to some of the dishes that have been piling up for weeks. Brussel sprouts with panchetta and balsamic glaze are in the oven, I binged Wednesday, so things are good. ❤️ Now if I could just finish this annotation assignment...
I hope the holiday season is treating you well so far!
~XOXO, Milo

Good morning, loves!
The last few days have been very hectic. Our landlord has been doing some construction on our house, so my roommate and I have been spending a lot more time downtown. There really isn't anything like studying with others!
QOTD: Library or café?
~XOXO, Milo

being a college student is so primal. Like a wolf roaming the tundra, my only thought is of my next meal. Unlike a wolf roaming the tundra, I have an analytical essay due next week
