e pur si muove

Updated to reflect the season. Kudos to aricee on flickr for the great snowflake photo!

I just signed up for SuprGlu. Aggregation on a personal level. Here’s my page. « Tym

Currently On My Desk

• 1 clean gym workout kit that I brought into lab last Thursday (sigh)
• 9 overdue library books that I’m too lazy to walk to the Chemistry library building to drop in the bookkdrop
• Two bottles of Hebrew Beer. A birthday present that I have yet to consume.

Currently Reading

• 61 papers on the statistical physics of networks consigned to the recycling center
• Linked: The New Science of Networks by Albert-László Barabási.

Currently Blogging

• This CurrentStatus Meme!
• Collecting links for an essay on Wikipedia

Currently Working

• Mathematical Methods final on the last day of finals. Saturday. 8 am. Ugh.
• Negotiating a new freelance blog assignment.
• 65 exam scripts
• Looking at air tickets out of the Shampoo-Banana. Chicago-Midway to NYC-Long Island, NY for $39 each way over the New Year looks really tempting.

Currently Playing

• 15.5 oz. of hot cross buns dough mix, sitting at home and (hopefully) rising by the minute. Maybe I’ll finally get to sample some by tomorrow.
• Play? As in computer games? Are you fscking out of your mind?

Currently Listening

• Nature Podcast, 15 December edition. This week’s Nature has an editorial which states that a study of 50 selected scientific articles on Wikipedia, which indiscriminately solicits contributions from just about any Internet user, were found to have only marginally more errors than corresponding articles on Encyclopedia Brittanica, which solicits articles from experts in the field.
• 周杰伦/温岚 - 屋顶. My favorite duet from the chinese pop scene in recent years. No KTV version here though. (Sob!) Tried looking for an MTV online yesterday but to no avail.

Currently Inspiring

• Hopefully, the students in my advisor’s class, for understanding why physics matters to chemistry.

Currently Thanking

• Kevin for the idea
• My advisor for cancelling finals for his class, thus not making me have to grade next week.
