Regular readers of this blog (both of you) have undoubtedly noticed the drought of posting in the last few weeks. I've been neglecting the blog as well as other trivial matters such as exercising, sleeping, and twittering, because of the usual end of the semester activities. Apparently, despite what everyone told me coming into grad school, there are finals and they are serious business. After I finish typing this I'm either going to finish rearranging my office or head home to get some sleep. I guess the bright side of all the work I've been doing as that I've also listened to a lot of new music in the last few weeks.
According to some of the other grad students, summer is much less stressful than the rest of the year. At the very least, I'm looking forward to the undergrads leaving and finally being able to park on campus. Also, I'll be doing some research or something, but I'm gonna let my brain rest for a few hours before I start worrying about that.

District 9
So this District-9 movie looks interesting...
The director, a guy by the name of Neill Blomkamp, is known mainly for his special effects work and short films. His short films have a pretty distinctive visual style, so it'll be interesting to see how his work translates onto the big screen.
District-9 is based on one of Blomkamp's shorts, called Alive in Joberg. If the film is anything like the short, it'll definitely be worth checking out.

Meetings
I just had an hour and a half meeting with my adviser in which we discussed my thesis, my post-doc, and my eventual career.
Because I don't have enough to worry about.

Finals
Just as we've skipped Spring and gone straight from Winter to Summer, my semester has seemingly gone straight from mid-terms to finals. Combine that with my research picking up and the result is no blog updates for over a week.
Eventually I'll find some time to write about my trip to Ann Arbor, cognitive contol of memory, or Long Island in the Summer... until then it'll be youtube videos and random other stuff.
