Well, finals are over. I’ve officially (assuming I pass everything) finished all the academic requirements for my Masters. This means that, if I wanted to, I could spend all next year sitting around, getting horrifically drunk, and taking undergrad 101 courses. As fun as that sounds, I’d like to continue with the whole “education” thing, so I’ll probably be taking real classes and figuring out what in the hell I’m going to write my dissertation on (eep!). Other major life decision which is looming: Should I apply to a bunch of grad schools this year? or just U of C? This is something that needs to be resolved by say….July, advice would be helpful.
In other news, I’m taking German while (re-)teaching myself Latin. This is neither fun nor easy nor fun. At least I’ll be super brilliant and be able to pick up chicks with my language knowledge: “Sup baby, Qui es tui Signo? Ich bin horny. Voulez-vous couchez avec moi ce soir? That should work.
Ultimate news: My summer league team is 5-2 and a pretty solid group of improving players, I think we’ve got potential, although not “win it all” potential…still I hope we’ll do well in the tournie. I’ve also been playing for the mixed club team Food & Liquor. Our first tournament is next weekend, I’m hoping for the best. Also, I’m hoping for kick ass jerseys. I don’t think I’ve been playing particularly well lately. I’ve been having a hard time finding my rhythm. Needless to say, this has been incredibly frustrating (because I’m a headcase). I’m hoping that I become motivated to kick more ass in the future, because, seriously, fuck being shitty.
My new apartment is awesome, except for the intermittent internet service. But hey I’m only paying like 60 dollars a month, what should I expect?
Nikolai might make a triumphant return to the blog in the next few days, with some writings from his epic trip around the world.
Seriously, I’m going to try to write more and more than just boring-ass life updates (like above)…I’m just having trouble dredging up some motivation/an interesting topic…again advice is useful.
