Superficial

Now that I've finally liberated myself from the devil (i.e ETS), I need to finally figure out where I'm applying to. I've got about 6 schools I'm pretty sure about (all the well known programs: Yale, Columbia, Stanford, UCSD, UCSF etc.) but I'm still hammering out a list. The weird thing is that I realized that i'm subconsciously judging these schools by how nice their campuses look. It's completely superficial and silly, but I guess if I'm going to be stuck somewhere for 5-6 years (who's looking forward to being 30 by the time they get out of school? yeeeehaw) i want to be somewhere pleasant. And if I'm going to be stuck in a lab for most of those years, I want it to be in a nice building with a view (unless i'm in a basement, always a possibility). Is it so much to ask?

Ouch

Yankees.

You're killing me. Aggggh. My hippocampus does not thank you for the extra stress and my heart does not appreciate it either.

I will forgive you if you manage to make it past the ALDS. I cannot take another off-season knowing that you pooped out in the first round again.

(real posts to resume, i hope.)
