So,

A) I suck at digital drawing.
B) They have not invited me to the third interview like they said they would in the second interview.
C) I am still working on the PhD application. Still think the CV is bad, the SOP sucks, and back and forth emailing professors about recommendation letters. I am not built for this, but who is. So out of comfort zone. So unrelated to actual research or brain capabilities.
D) Moving in with parents is all fun and games and "I can do this", until you get stuck inside with them for over a month because of lockdowns.

... I hope next year is going to be better...

    @C0D4 not me. Another poor soul. I just pace the room at nights, so might soon make the summer heat worse cuz I may reach the core. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    FWIW, more than happy to take a look at the CV and give any pointers (which you'd be welcome to take or leave of course.) In industry now, but stayed in academia long enough to do the PhD, though certainly not in ML.

    Additionally though, I'm also aware it can seem a bit creepy when a stranger on the internet offers to help out with a personal document, so I wouldn't be the slightest bit offended if you told me to piss off πŸ˜…

    @AlmondSauce I appreciate the offer a lot, but because of so much personal info, I won't be able to share it with you and sleep well at night as well. πŸ˜‰
    Thank you β˜ΊοΈπŸ’™
