The time is going by quickly. I attended a math review for the econ class, continued setting things up, went to a computer workshop, completed the IT assignment, set up some software stuff, and worked my way through a back-log of e-mails.
I really enjoyed the math this morning, though I was probably one of few. It made me realize how much I miss the math we did at SJC and how sweet it was to be in a place where everyone was pumped about math. Of course, I could walk one building over and find more than enough people at this institution fitting that profile, but still, they're not in planning. Regardless, it was sweet, and a little logarithms and calculus made for a sweet morning.
The computer workshop was also cool. I feel like I'm learning an immense volume of things while I'm here, which I guess is the point.
Tomorrow I'm going to let myself sleep in a bit, do grocery shopping, work out the budget transition from the summer to the academic year, start ordering text books, work on MORE admin (I know, it must sound like I'm making things up at this point, but there's so much involved her), and then maybe hang out in the evening.
I applied to 3 research positions so far (I can't remember if I posted about that). I should know the results from those applications by next Tuesday or Wednesday.
