Pop in a Quarter, Knock Yourself Out

Breathe in, Read, Breathe out.

a little of this, and a splash of that

school has an uncanny ability to speed time up. it's actually rather frightening. i nearly got a mini panic attack (more like a panic speed bump) really when i suddenly realised that i'm going to be in my fourth and final year next year. no more school and the laid back-ish life of a student. sigh.

im doing this module called energy where we look at energy from the different viewpoints of all the sciences (dont ask why). this few weeks we're covering the relativistic notions of energy (think einstein) and i realised after the first class, what liberties theoretical physicists take. there was this one problem we were discussing about black holes and how in a two-event horizon black hole its possible to go to the centre without getting harmed but when you come out, its another dimension. physicists look at the math and nod their heads in agreement as if its the most sensible thing in the world to conclude and us plebians down in our humble hole look at them and say to ourselves, "are you freaking serious?"

im taking another module called understanding irony. now this module is really really fun and extremely interesting. plus im finally doing a lit module, something i've been wanting to do for a long time now. but the more i go through the module the more confused i get about what irony actually is... there's irony for you.

i am totally gaining weight... what is it about living on campus and suppers that seem to somehow go hand in hand?

i cannot wait to leave for exchange. i have such plans and i want to do everything. i cant wait to visit ny, go back to harvard to visit all the people in boston, head down to dc and maybe new orleans for mardi gras and maybe even hit mexico for spring break. then europe afterwards which im really really really thrilled about. GOSH I HOPE EVERYTHING PANS OUT!

it's amazing how distracted i can get when reading up online. for eg: i was reading up on natural selection on wiki --> there was a link on polydactyly (ie having 6 digits) so i went to that --> there was a link there on hrithik roshan being a polydactyly so i went there --> and of couse there a link on his recent film jodhaa akbar (which everyone keeps talking about) so i scooted on there. this by the way is but a mere taste on what other online journeys i have taken.
