Patri-falses?

Pats fans mourn. Not a good day for us. We didn't play very well last night. Eli had a few stellar passes but I can barely say the same for Brady. I saw some great catches and Welker played pretty well. But the pats were off, and what a game to be off for.

I feel bad for Shane's brother.

He went to a casino a while ago and put down 50 dollars on the pats having a perfect season. Just a lonely pats fan out west, trying to cheer on the home team. Turns out the pats go 16-0 and if they win the superbowl his 50 dollars becomes 20,000, just like that.

Well the pats lost. And I feel bad for shanes brother because it was so close.

But enough of that, I dont really care about sports. Its too bad but regardless if they win or lose, I still have a physics test wednesday, yknow? My life and the life of a new england patriot are distinctly and entirely dissimilar.

With that said. I figured I'd update you on what's new in my life.

Last week I worked my face off putting together a research proposal. want to see it? Remember I told you I was working in a spine bioengineering lab? Well I am, and there is this research award thing that I applied for. Follow that link if you want to see the proposal.

If I get chosen, I win $3000 to go towards the research (including a trip to the orthopaedic research society) and $1000 cash moneys to my face.

Not bad. Plus I'll be getting all the experience

Haha, but check this out. I didn't have a resume and they needed me to send one in. I ended up including this in my resume.

Yea, that is a graph of my GPA each semester. Whats it to you? Look at that ridiculous dip in performance though. Let me be a spokesperson for all those who choose to disagree.

Marijuana effects your academic performance. Please consult figure 1 (left). I wonder if I'll ever be able to bring my cumulative back up again. It'll be tough.

I had an idea. Here's an idea. Remember how I said I was moving sites so that I can add other pages? I thought of a page. I'd like to add sections of knowledge... kind of like class notes, but easy to follow with pictures. More like drawings or cartoons. And the subjects would be stuff that you probably don't know about. I would probably try to raid my class notes for an interesting topic and then just go off on it.

Let me know if you think that would be cool. I realize lots of us are studying different stuff at school. Might be neat to get a glimpse into another person's situation. Namely, mine.

Hyde, still debating between costa and spainiard. Dave suggested london but then I'm not altogether surprised.

I saw there will be blood but i won't review it. Let's just say that he is definitely a good actor. I just think its very weird which movies the world of movie snobs decide to embrace as extraordinary. Actually. that's a good word for the movie. Extra-ordinary. (sans ordinary). Though I'd have to give it to no country for old dudes in the end.

So suddenly my digg world is being rocked by real life interactions. Namely, suddenly I have friends on digg that i recognize in the world of the living.
