A day in the life of a girl who's finding herself after her Ph.D. program. Consider this a look into the daily (or not so daily) doings of such a person. Yay! You know, I ought to be using the term "quotidian" for my "daily doings." Meh.

Lazy bunny. . .
Our bunny is totally lazy and weird. We had food in her cage for several days, but she kept sighing and being bratty by refusing to eat the other day. So, the S.O. picks up some hay for her. Instead of eating the hay, she moves the box it's in so that she has the perfect setup for reaching the other food comfortably without having to get up.

Creepy. . .
Of course, I'm currently using Blogger, which is owned by Google. So, when I saw this video on the takeover of media by Google, I was literally creeped out. It's creepy because it could easily happen!

Holy Smokes!
It just goes to show how addictive smoking really is! Damn, that is some funny shit! Apparently, this chimp in South Africa even hides the smokes from his zoo keepers. Naughty monkey!

Ok, I can't help but find these discussions on social class hierarchy to be totally amusing. I love indietits!

AAACK!!! 2 more weeks!
Only two more weeks before finals. Which means, we English majors only have 2 more weeks to write three 20 page papers. Yikes! Of course, this also means that I will be procrastinating as much as possible via my blog in the next two weeks.
Good times!
Good times!

Oooh. . . text generator!
Yet another really cool text generator that was referenced by Wil Wheaton. I think it's cool just because it pulls off some rather funny stuff from 80s pop culture:

The Brits know a pimpin' good time
I normally don't post specific links to articles that are funny (well, don't we have a million different sites to do that), but this is just ril, ril funny:

I finally passed. . . yet I still have sooo much to do
Well, Friday was the big day. It was the day of my infamous masters presentation. . . a sort of quasi defence of a 30 page paper from hell. It turned out really well. I provided a ton of food, including delectable croissandwiches, and booze (like 4 bottles of wine and a six pack of Harp), so many of the faculty and students did turn out for it. I thought I was going to get hammered with questions, but I was only asked about 3 or 4. They weren't even that hard. In less than a minute, I left and came back to the room for a round of congratulations. All was well with the world.
Well. . . now all that remains are the few papers that I will need to write to graduate my courses and all of those student papers that I must grade for my own courses. It is quite a lot considering there are only a three weeks remaining in the semester.
Sigh. After this, I just need to find a job (the hardest task any masters student must attempt).
