My twitter is down. I was going to ask all of you to add me to keep me updated, but I suppose that won't work. Add me later then http://twitter.com/colleenannhayes
I do see the argument, but I often come across things that I may never would have before with such applications described in the article. The internet appeals to my need to learn, and speak to those in interesting fields. I suppose it just a different kind of serendipity. I may be looking at an article or blog and discover something entirely new and unexpected within it that I was not looking for in the first place. Quite serendipitous.
I have red state blues. Really it is depressing living in Alabama. I have lived in Europe and all over the us. This place by far is the worst. I can go into many reasons, but alas once I finish grad school I shall move elsewhere. For the time being I am a bookworm and a computer addict. Looking at the local newspaper is depressing, racism and anti- progressivism abounds.
Grad school for me is like this: class, sleep, write, and no social life. I question some of the assignments, but find the content interesting. I just wonder sometimes what other people (ladies) my age are doing. I assume marriage, dating, or having children. I do not think of myself as abnormal for not taking that route, but instead realize I just do not have time for these things at the moment.
