I might actually have to redo a little of my 101 . There are a few items on there that I'm not so much copping out on, but are no longer reasonable tasks for me to achieve. For example, it turns out that it's a little too late in my graduate career to be applying for the NRSA if I am planning to graduate in 5 years.
Still, I have accomplished a few things. I tried a Bikram yoga class on Labor Day. I arrived to a hot, sweaty, and extremely smelly room. After years of doing Ashtanga, I have to say that the practice did nothing for me physically. Yes, I sweated, but it was not from physical exertion. In fact, I did not feel winded at all - I felt like I barely worked out at all! External heat does a lot for your flexibility - I was shocked at how flexible I was at 6 AM only 15 minutes into the practice.
I also finally emailed off my research proposal for a project I am hoping to run in Taiwan. With the revisions for my meta-analysis in my advisor's lab, I now have to buckle down and applying for funding for my studies. I have to say this week I've been so busy with teaching and research that I've given up practicing yoga (only been 3 days and it's already KILLING ME!!) and brushing my hair. Hopefully things will settle down by Sunday.
But over the past few weeks, I've had some time for fun:
I saw Wicked with the roomie:
and went to my first UT game.
