ramble through the bronx
yes, this here is ramble through the bronx, the continuing musings of a graduate student* who should be writing her dissertation, but honestly, living in new york city there's really so much else to do...* and her commenting friends. And guest blogger.

you know you need coffee when
I had been sitting in front of the computer for twenty minutes. Nothing was clicking inside my brain. Suddenly, I wondered what that white blob was in the corner of my eye.
It was the coffee I had purchased! Coffee! I have coffee! Who knew!
...you know you need coffee when you forget to drink your coffee, and in fact forget you even have coffee.
This is sad.
(though not as sad as my desire for a cigarette. it would just be a nice excuse to leave this basement office and stand in the sun for a bit. that would be very nice.)
Which reminds me - there should be some research somewhere about the prevalence of smoking amongst graduate students. It seems far higher than in the general population. Further, I'd like to see the research broken down by discipline. Who smokes more, philosophy or theology? Biology or sociology? I'd like to know.
There is, however, a Grad Student Purity Test Purity test. It's almost worth it for the question about quoting Heidegger in bed, or complaining about the second-class-citizen treatment of grad students. I answered "yes" to 75 of 163. (Many of them seem to be Princeton in-jokes)
