A general update

It's been a while since I posted, so here is smorgasbord of "stuff"...

I moved into that room across the hall. It seems like my roommate and I are pretty compatible; we don't have a ton in common, but the things that affect sharing space are line. We keep similar hours, similar social habits, and similar levels of neatness. We do connect on a few things, like knitting, Obama, and talking about high school. She's a history major, knits constantly, and loves Sex and the City.

Which reminds me, House has probably started back up and if so, I'm behind.

Classes are less satisfying this term. My chemistry professor isn't as charismatic and my math teacher isn't as good at teaching as last term. I like my prof in solar/renewable energies, but we're going SO slow because the class, it turns out, is geared toward non-science majors. My writing GTF is charismatic, interesting, and cute - but the class he teaches is the definition of lame. Lab is a good class with a good teacher - and I enjoy it greatly - but somewhat harrowing since things don't always go the way they're supposed to, causing the schedule to get modified a lot.

Now that I live on campus and have math with Fidelity, I'm always hanging out with her or Dancing Physicist. Fidelity's boyfriend (another friend from high school and another physics major) is in town this weekend and we are trying to get all four of us together for brunch tomorrow. If we succeed, I can only imagine the hilarity that will ensue. Let's hope I don't have to stop Dancing Physicist and the boyfriend from building catapults out of the silverware...

Up is not a vaccuum. Up is a fluffy gray blanket. Up also was not a cardinal direction until you called it one. Maybe up is what the ancients wanted when they searched for a fifth element.

The best friends are the ones who show you something new all the time.
