This Saturday, while biking to the library to the library I helped three lost kids find their way to liquor store. I felt very helpful today. This is start of new academic year and the campus was hustling bustling with undergrad kids. I've been going to library to find peace for writing. I think it may be just change of environment which is (was) working. But for couple of days it was very productive writing session. I'm working on my second paper for Journal of Fluid Mechanics. The first one is in limbo with my advisor so actually both of them together are first and second paper. Writing is a very arduous task to me. I don't know why but I find it difficult to compose scientific sentences. But I have to do it anyway so I'm putting my head into it.
Oh and I think I forgot to break the news here that my adviser is leaving the university. Before me :P
He is moving to New York as a dean of some other University. So there is a little bit of uncertainty what will happen and how I'm going to finish but I have been assured smooth transition. Anyway, if the project I'm working on is here I don't have much to worry about. I might have to find a new committee member if not a new adviser. So I want to finish a lot of stuff as long is he is still here.
Another friend of me is moving away for a long time and there is a bit of uncertainty when, where we will meet. We have been more attached than we thought we were. That was a discovery made in last month. So it's all happening at the same time. But focus is really getting my PhD now. I need to put my head and get done with this thing. I'm looking at next summer for graduation. May, if I work hard enough and then I have summer to look forward to.
