Other Things Besides Downloading the RIAA Doesn't Care For

Started working

I started my social networking research with Professor Astrachan today.

UIUC Graduation

Amazing, my brother, Chris, has already graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Four years has flown by already, and I am not letting my fourth year go by without taking full advantage of all the opportunities that I can. The graduation was surprisingly short. On Saturday was the ceremony for Finance and Economics and all those grads walked on that day. Today, the ceremony was the commencement for all grads and only the PhD's walked and other colleges were recognized. The speaker, Bill Geist, was funny and entertaining. Seeing my aunt and grandparents was great too since I almost never get to see them anymore. It was a good family time.

Exams, Moved Out/In, Myrtle

Exams as over and so is moving. Myrtle is done with and concludes another year at Duke. Three years have already flown by so quickly. Exams went great and my grades were actually very satisfying for the first time in a long time. There is something about the finality of moving out and seeing the room that I've lived in for the last year completely empty. This year is not as sad because I am doing research at Duke with the CS Dept. So I will be around for the summer and so will a lot of friends.

I am living in Erwin Terrace for the summer above Chai's with Ty and Derek. It should be lots of fun. I moved everything in and the apartment looks great.

Myrtle was a great time, but last year's was better. Not in terms of partying or anything, because this year the weather was great. I got more drunk and passed out on the beach. It was pretty awesome, but unfortunately there were less of my friends there so it was kinda sad. But thats okay. Maybe next year.
