I know that productivity comes in waves and that in graduate school especially there are times where you are super productive and inspired to do work ... and then there are other times where a whole lot of nothing gets done ... but for the past month (or well probably the past three months, but i traveled a lot for two of those months, so i didn't feel guilty about being unproductive) I've been following this downward spiral of nothingness and the deeper I fall the harder it is to find my way out ... in other words I don't really have anything to work on ... and I need to figure something out ASAP otherwise I am never going to get anywhere ...
Anyway to accomplish "figuring out what to do with my academic/social life" I have decided to do a bit of spring cleaning ...
In the next 24 hrs I plan to:
1) Clean my office (I am almost done there)
2) Clean my car (including washing and vacuuming the inside)
3) Clean my house (including scrubbing the bathroom and kitchen floors, vacuuming the carpets and laundry)
4) Get my hair cut (10 am tomorrow morning)
5) Meeting with my advisor to work on some sort of "figure out Rachel's PhD topic" plan ... ugh
Anyway, maybe tomorrow if i start the day out with a clean house, clean car, and clean office AND I have clean clothes and a new haircut ... i'll actually be productive ... but no matter what I am sure that i will fell less Blah :)
