  • What happens next

    In eleven days, I get done with summer classes!

    An additional fourteen days later, I have to be back on campus. (these 14 days are potentially planned to be spent roadtripping to Chicago/Boston in my 335xi)

    Add seven days to that and I have to be out of the Otter lodge.

    The next few days will be spent moving, and packing and cleaning.

    Fall semester starts September 9.

    Time isn’t excessive or at a shortage. Between now to then, I have to finish a proposal (2 drafts at least) for my degree which I have been postponing and for which I have no idea what to talk about. Sure finance and Econ click relatively well but how do I tie Russian into that?

    Read an article today on the WSJ about language and culture. Apparently when one switches language modes, the thinking modes changes too and one is able to view the world in a different way. I’m inspired! Also, Russians are able to discriminate critically between shades of blue because in ‘roos-ki-ii ya-zik’, the differences between light and dark are clearly defined.
