go bold

It’s almost more comforting believing that there aren’t. It’s kind of shocking to find out that someone actually followed up on the cards I handed out at SXSW… but why did I do it, if I wasn’t expecting that people would?

Life at MIT is, as usual, overwhelming and slightly smothering — but also dynamic, exciting, and inspiring. I get to write papers on the culture around text messaging for my Comparative Media Studies class with Henry Jenkins, and to spend hours upon hours with three guys just putting together the module dependency diagram for my software lab’s final project. Sometimes I think all it’d take for everyone to be immediately more cheerful is some sun and warmth to the air outside. Soon enough — spring had better be the hell on its way.

I’m sick, swamped, and in no mood to post anything particularly insightful or interesting.

Instead, I want to save these links for posterity: look! a cartoon room.

And research that says that we should all get dirty once in awhile.

Cheers,
Christine
