# 2025-08-13

Today is August 13th, 2025, otherwise known as judgment
|
|
day. Just kidding, but today I have my meeting with Dan
|
|
about my topic ideas. I feel anxious, but pretty good in
|
|
general. I saw Dan this morning and he seems to be in good
|
|
spirits. I can do this!
|
|
|
|
My eye doctor appointment was also today. The results? My
|
|
prescription is pretty much the same. I also do not have
|
|
glaucoma it looks like. Doc was surprised I wear glasses at
|
|
all, figuring the binocular detriment of glasses in my case.
|
|
Honestly, he's right, I should wear contacts more often.
|
|
I'll try to make a point to do that. Now that I have this
|
|
new prescription, I can get on ordering more contacts from
|
|
Costco. Dr. Clermont also recommend to try and stay around
|
|
twelve hours of usage a day to minimize hydration issues. He
|
|
said pushing 16 some times is okay. 12 hours would be 7-7
|
|
(duh), while 16 would be 7-11pm. We also discussed LASIK,
|
|
and he said honestly I'd be a great candidate. He gave me a
|
|
note with a number to call.
|
|
|
|
Today is also our group meeting. Apparently it's a
|
|
'standup' now.
|
|
|
|
## Personal
|
|
|
|
Personally I'm doing pretty okay. I'm trying to focus on
|
|
framing things in a more positive way. I think it is working
|
|
somewhat; there's moments where things click in a way I
|
|
don't feel as anxious about.
|
|
|
|
On the lady front, I finally hit app-burnout. I was reading
|
|
a text and the typos just made me angry. Like, c'mon, read
|
|
your message! This isn't rational, however, as any number of
|
|
things can create a typo and it really isn't a big deal.
|
|
There's no reason I should get so frustrated at something so
|
|
small like that.
|
|
|
|
Anyways, here's the roster and relevant updates:
|
|
|
|
**Miranda**:
|
|
Miranda is cool and I like her a good bit. She's funny,
|
|
seems somewhat interested in me, and is a great time to be
|
|
around. That being said, I need to be careful. I'm getting
|
|
somewhat infatuated with her but there isn't really a super
|
|
strong connection there yet. This is one that I need to
|
|
really step off the brakes with and see how things develop.
|
|
She is going on vacation with her family next Friday, and
|
|
then going solo camping after that. Then, I'm really going
|
|
to try and let her set something up.
|
|
|
|
**Katarina**:
|
|
Katarina is a recent match and is interesting as a prospect.
|
|
She seems pretty nice and is a bioengineering PhD student in
|
|
her 5th year. So almost done maybe? I'll get more details on
|
|
Thursday night!
|
|
|
|
**Abby:**
|
|
Abby is a nurse who I've had an interesting conversation
|
|
with about religion. She has 'catholic' in her profile but
|
|
is apparently not very religious actually. She has a dog
|
|
named Goose! We're meeting up on Sunday to take Goosey-boy
|
|
for a walk.
