grad school: board work

My Life Happiness
The other day, Sarah drew this graph on the board. I know it's a little hard to read in the photo, but here are the pertinent details: it's titled "My Life's Happiness," and you'll notice that the Y-axis is labelled "happiness", as measured in the units of "giddies." Along the X-axis we have "grade school," "jr. high," "high school," "college," and, finally, accompanied by a marked plunge in the ordinate, "grad school."


I am in awe of the handwriting of the professor (Eberly?) who teaches the lecture preceeding my E&M course. Look at those curly script E's—I've been working on those for years! This photo is of only one panel out of three or four, which, taken together, are a masterpiece to behold. Not only is the handwriting so pretty, but you can almost understand the whole lecture from a glance at the board. Then, sadly, they are erased to make room for several boards full of non-sequitir scrawled heiroglyphics...

That first picture makes me want to get to know the first years.

And by "get to know" I quite possibly mean "date".

But not, you know, all at the same time.

No! Bad Kris! No commenting while drunk!

Haha--sorry, Kris, I think it's too late to retract the comment.

I'll try to make an update while drunk in the near future--then we'll all be even, right (ha!)?
