After more than 1.5 months without a proper internet connection, I am online again!

It was a weird time. I noticed how much I rely on being connected to the internet. The luxury of being able to check everything at any time, listen to all the music I want (spotify, I missed you!) or watch TV shows/movies. But it also showed me what I could do else with my time. Mostly, I spent my evenings reading a PDF version of HPMoR that I downloaded at work, spinning poi or watching TV/quizzing with my grandma. I should try to keep a balance of online and offline time (meat- vs. cyberspace?).

You might remember that I decided to quit my current PhD position. I decided that I will try applying for graduate schools (the ones that are still open for applicants) and contact Profs directly if their work interests me. Additionally I will try to get as much information about the PIs through friends at universities as possible. Don't want to do the same mistakes again.

I have been having troubles falling asleep because my mind keeps thinking and thinking about all the things that I have to do and all the things I worry about. I wonder how I could turn it "off". Any suggestions?
