Well, the first week of the semester is finished. Three of my classes have projects/presentations, but they don't seem like they'll be too difficult. Complex analysis looks like it's going to be really fun and algebraic geometry looks like it will be mind-blowing. Difficult as hell, yes, but mind-blowing (in an awesome way), nonetheless.
Still, I blew off tonight's homework stint to watch a bunch of downloaded episodes of Dexter with Mara1. How have I possibly missed this awesome show? Oh, that's right...I have no life outside of math.

`In that case we start fresh,' said Humpty Dumpty, `and it's my turn to choose a subject -- ' (`He talks about it just as if it was a game!' thought Alice.) `So here's a question for you. How old did you say you were?'
Alice made a short calculation, and said `Seven years and six months.'
`Wrong!' Humpty Dumpty exclaimed triumphantly. `You never said a word like it!'
`I though you meant "How old are you?"' Alice explained.
`If I'd meant that, I'd have said it,' said Humpty Dumpty.
Alice didn't want to begin another argument, so she said nothing.
`Seven years and six months!' Humpty Dumpty repeated thoughtfully. `An uncomfortable sort of age. Now if you'd asked my advice, I'd have said "Leave off at seven" -- but it's too late now.'
`I never ask advice about growing,' Alice said Indignantly.
`Too proud?' the other inquired.
Alice felt even more indignant at this suggestion. `I mean,' she said, `that one can't help growing older.'
`One can't, perhaps,' said , `but two can. With proper assistance, you might have left off at seven.'
I don't know whether I should laugh or cry.
