Holy shit is grad school keeping me busy...My project is going really well, and we should be able to publish a couple of papers probably by the end of summer, so I really shouldn't complain. But lately I am finding myself in dire need of some balance, like trading the science paper readings for cooking, playing video games and working out for one night. I...

So I bought Skyrim almost a year ago now, and I only started playing it this weekend, because I've been so busy with school thus far. Well, I may be a little late to the party, but I gotta say: THIS GAME FUCKING ROCKS!!! smile

Every now and then, a game gets mixed or average reviews, despite being an outstanding game. The mixed reviews can sometimes make you overlook a hidden gem that really should not be missed. Alice: Madness Returns DEFINITELY is one such game...I highly recommend it! smile

So I've only got one exam left on the 17th, and then I am all done, graduated, outta here, and back to Montreal to do a PhD in Human Genetics. I made my decision of which supervisor I was going to go with, and I am stoked!

I am so lucky. Montreal is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, especially in the...

Oh yeah I saw that one...it's sick. I love how they use this girl as a human skipping rope, and send people flying in the air like it's no big deal...Like Amanda said, I can't believe some of this stuff is humanly possible! smile

So I was about to bitch about having to write my thesis, but then I saw this video about a homeless Korean boy who entered Korea's Got Talent and stole the show. I don't think I'll ever complain again. Watch this, it is so inspirational:

So I risked an offer by asking for a one-week extension (I can't believe I was able to keep a level head and not accept an offer like this on the spot), and I pushed the envelope with the other potential offer, and my gamble worked. I now have two offers! I can't believe the two most powerful researchers in the Human Genetics department are...

I am going to have to take the evening to think about this, but I do believe someone made me an offer I can't refuse! smile (see my previous post)

My number one pick (the very powerful one) has made an offer, so I think it's time for me to take my rightful place in the world.... smile

Man, does that ever feel good.

So I seem to be doing everything but writing my thesis, so I thought why not put a new entry in my SG blog that I haven't updated in forever?

Lots has been happening since I last wrote here: I almost certainly will be going back to McGill for my PhD, which will be in Human Genetics. I went on a trip to Montreal recently...
