This Friday is a really big day for me. I have a midterm in neural systems, Marty Rehab is in town, and X-Men 2 opens nationwide. Then on Saturday, Pejman and I are competing in the Intramural Doubles Tournament. So, it is essential that I get everything off to a good start by performing well [...]

Midterm

April 28, 2003

I have been studying quite a bit lately for my upcoming neural systems exam, so you may have noticed my journal entries becoming less frequent. Or perhaps you didn’t notice… Anyway, the exam is focusing on three topics: motor systems, audition, and “olfaction”. I include the quotes around olfaction because, as it turns out, we [...]

Ridiculous and Quaid

* Ridiculous Item of the Day: I went to McDonald’s for breakfast last week. This is ridiculous, yes, but the most ridiculous item came when a man parked his brand new Honda Civic in the parking lot, went to the payphone, checked the coin return slot, and then got back in his car and drove [...]

Present this!

April 23, 2003

Today’s presentation turned out to be a lot longer than expected, though I can’t complain too much because most of the time was spent listening to the instructors talk to each other about the faults of the journal article. You see, this diverts the attention away from me (and my obvious lack of understanding of [...]

On this day four years ago, Roger M. uttered those famous words, “Jen’s Birfday’s on Earfday!” and a tradition was born! So, on this glorious 22nd of April, in the year 2003, I wish all of you a Happy Anniversary of the Day Roger Said “Jen’s Birfday’s on Earfday!”. I would also like to send [...]

Suns to Super Bowl in Cards 2003

April 19, 2003

Tonight’s Suns game was quite possibly the most exciting basketball game I’ve ever seen in my life. It definitely brought back memories of Rex Chapman launching that 3-point bomb against Seattle a few years back. Pejman, Brian, and I were going absolutely insane when Marbury made that final bank-shot. Especially, Brian. Even though he doesn’t [...]

Check out this message I posted on some newsgroup six years ago. I came across it the other day as I was surfing the internet (Ok, I admit it…I searched for my own name on google.com). Still, this is undeniable evidence that even at an early age I functioned at a highly intellectual level. Look [...]

Tennis, silly games, and more MG

April 17, 2003

I just got back from the tennis match to end all tennis matches–not even sure what that means–and I’m already starting to feel soreness throughout my body. Tonight it was a story of ups and downs, with Pejman and I staging a series of individual comebacks and then turning around and blowing the very next [...]

Seth’s face

Today’s journal club pretty much cleaned me out of any creative energy I might have had, so there won’t be much from me tonight. Sandeep and Jen did the best anyone could possibly do given such a lifeless paper, but I still haven’t been that confused since…well, perhaps last week’s journal club. The only thing [...]

Making progress

- Brian and I got together tonight to “start preparing” for the presentation we’re set to give next week in journal club. Everything started off very well: we had the papers out, we were getting ready to discuss strategies and organization, and I could definitely feel the creative energy flowing. Then, suddenly, we both realized [...]
