I was in the shuttle bus to my temporary apartment, and I was looking around in a jetlagged, cramped-plane daze, looking at all the little differences that make everything else seem overly weird, when it hit me "oh shit ... I live here now".
My parents both moved to Oxford, England to do their PhDs when they were almost exactly my age, I wonder how it must've been for them. Especially my mother, who six years before that had moved to Australia to do her undergrad.
It's two months 'til Lauren flys over here to start her post-doc at Stanford, I'm wondering how much I'll have changed by then. I suppose it'll be nothing profound; I'll just be fatter or something.
Oh, and since we're talking about acadenerdia, I handed in my final Masters project the day before I left. Fingers crossed.
So .. tired.
