So, it seems that my transcripts from Saarbrücken for fellowship applications have somehow gotten lost in the mail. They were sent on Nov 19, but still haven’t arrived (here or in Washington). Arg! Fortunately, the NSF stuff doesn’t need to be postmarked until Friday, so the lady over there is going to try sending some new copies. So frustrating, but soon it will be over (one way or another).

In other news, this week officially sucks. I hate the end of the semester and all the franticness it entails. I spent some time on my take home final for algorithms. I think I have solutions (more or less) to 3 of the 5 problems. For the other two, I’m still drawing somewhat of a blank though. It’s not due until Friday, but I have an actual final exam in Architecture that day as well. I’m virtually just counting down the days until Dec 21, when I leave for Christmas. Actually, because of how my plane ticket worked out, I should be done with work by Dec 15th or so, leaving me a nice week in there to get some research work done.
