Tall Oaks from Little Acorns grow.

David Everett (1769-1813)

You'd scarce expect one of my age
To speak in public on the stage;
And if I chance to fall below
Demosthenes or Cicero,
Don't view me with a critic's eye,
But pass my imperfections by.
Large streams from little fountains flow,
Tall oaks from little acorns grow.

I'm a little acorn!! Woo Hooo!!!

Graduation

Hello hello!!

Masters has been dragging on FOREVER!!! But looking at schedule, I should be able to finish by June! WOO HOO. HELP UC now has this really cool online experiment site, where students publish their research titles and available time slots, and participants sign up online. It was really exciting watching people sign up for the sessions, kinda like watching the stock market! XD

But thank God, the numbers are rolling in, and my sessions are filling up. Thanks to Jenn Ming who helped promote my research to his classmates. Thank you thank you Ming!!! So come next Friday, I'll begin the first session of data gathering for the long awaited dissertation.

The thing is, I used to absolutely dispise research. But this time it's different, I am excited and passionate about my research! Goodness! Must be getting this from Justin.

So, watch out for my formal announcement on graduation some time in June =D

Smooth Jazz

My latest craze is Peter Cincotti. His piano skills are just AMAZING!!! Heard him on Lite.fm's Swing time every Sunday night - Good stuff.

Jazz notes... jazz chords.... Ahhhhh~~~ Any suggestions for smooth jazz songs? Justin and I appreciate the suggestions!
