It's 3AM, and I'm still awake for some reason. I wake up in the mornings now, and I don't want to crawl out of bed. It's not exhaustion; it's fatigue. Exhaustion is a temporary state. You sleep it off and then you're fine. Fatigue is when you've been oscillating between exhaustion and not for weeks, and the sleep-debt you've racked up numbers in the double digits.

That's what I am, that's what I dream, that's what I do. Always have and always will. I realized this years ago, arms-deep in a box of scraps and told to build a robot (true. story.), and never happier. I learned then that I'm a builder, and then took steps down a path that eventually coming to an end.
If I get the funding (I hope I get the funding), I'll be working at the Media Lab for the summer on a bunch of different projects as their jack-of-all-trades type person. Hopefully, one of those projects will be good enough to turn into a thesis. And more than that, I'll have fun doing it.
