I am happy that all the silly TA thingies are done with and that I've met the other people in the program and the faculty and they all seem to be nice, down to earth folks...
One thing that struck me very hard this week was, now that I'm in graduate school, I'm studying with a group of nerds just like myself :-p so I don't have to worry about coming off as a know-it-all or about referencing some obscure theorist or just some of my own strange ideas..it's a very strange feeling that I'm not quite used to just yet, but it's a pleasant feeling nontheless.
I'll be happy to start class and put my brain back into gear, I swore up and down that this summer I would do a lot of reading and writing and get my thesis into some kind of publishable form, but I just haven't had the motivation to do so..I mean even now, I should be thinking about cranking out a syllabus for my recitation section but I don't feel up to it. Well part of it is I'm not sure that I even want to make one up for the class because really my vision is for it to be a discussion session rather than a lecture/assignment kind of traditional class...Hahaha..when in doubt, call it subversive :-D
It's also second date time this weekend, yay! This time doing something really really gay, which I'll only post about post-factum..haha
