Things could be worse
I just finished re-reading the whole of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and now I am wondering what book series to read next. I never did read the Dirk Gently series by Douglas Adams, so I might do that.
I did however just re-watch the entirety of the anime Hellsing. I always liked the series, but really never liked the ending. It seemed too cliff-hangy to me. Turns out, I never actually finished watching the series and ended on the one before the last episode. No wonder I thought it ended on a cliffhanger though some others told me just the opposite.
I think I may have found myself a research position for over the summer, though I have little to no idea what will be involved with it. It's with a previous professor of mine whom I talked to on a few occasions. Cool guy, smart, does a lot of interesting crap, so I hope I can learn a fair amount from him and his group. Like I said though, I've only talked with him about it through e-mail, so I really don't know what's going on with it or what I will be doing, or even if it will be paid. I should be talking to one of his grad students soon though, that grad student also happening to have been a TA of mine whom I got along well with, so things should turn out ok.
Beyond that, I don't really know what to say. I've been feeling quite tired lately, though maybe that's been due to stress more than anything else.
I did see Sugano Sensei, my Japanese teacher from HS, at a skit thingy on campus. I wanted to talk to her, but I had class and the skits wouldn't be ending until class was half-over. I keep meaning to visit her at school, but time is lacking and I really don't know what I'd say.
Well, the weather outside seems like it's calmed down a bit; at the very least it shouldn't be raining for a little while. That being the case, I believe I am going to step outside and take a ride around the neighborhood.
