things

1.  took one final today after studying all day yesterday.  it was short and not too hard (i hope).  now all that stands between me and freedom is one more final.  and i have a week to prepare.  and the prof. is letting us use a cheat sheet.  this seems like the perfect recipe for procrastination.

2.  my phone kept vibrating during my final. so, after the test, i checked it and i had two missed calls and a voicemail from a potential job opportunity.  it wouldn't be so bad if it was the first time, but we've been playing phone tag for weeks now, so i was pretty agitated.  but i called him back and he said he'd like to have me in for an interview in early January!  hope it works out.

3.  started reading "blink" by malcolm gladwell today.  its an interesting book, but even more interesting because he talks about one of my previous psych professors in it.  apparently my professor helped design some experiment (implicit associations test) that tests whether people have implicit biases toward (and against) certain races.  thought provoking stuff.

4.  uva soccer takes on wake forest tonight for the college cup semifinal game.  go hoos.
