How could I be so...

...STUPID???

The Grad School at Cornell supports students presenting their work at conferences with up to 650 dollars once a year. I banked on this support for the Cologne conference. Today I sat down to fill out the application and almost got a heart attack.

See, I thought that the deadline was the first of the month of the conference. Turns out it is the first of the month BEFORE the conference. Here I am with my application, a month after the deadline.

Moron!


Update 07/31/07: The lady at the Grad School said I could submit my excessively belated application and so I did. Instantly. Now I'm waiting to see what comes out of it.
Update 08/01/07: They saw aumur á mér and gave me the grant. Nice.
