I guess Macquarie got some funding or something recently good for them#what if I went to Zurich.#applications aren’t closed until may and they’re funded unless they’re lying. I could learn german.#I met a dude who works there this summer. I don’t think I care abt his field but we did email a Bunch#why is the website exclusively showing me cell biologists I KNOW a conservation guy works here#hrm I’m going to go to bed now. this is dumb and I’m not going to Zurich. but what if I did.#insane that it might be easier to do that than find a PhD in this country for next year at this point#I’m also not doing a PhD next year if I do one it’ll be applying next year but I gotta find SOMETHING for next year and I’m going to cry.#anyway bedtime#luke.txt
