I haven't made a post in such a long time... I am just always so busy. And I haven't really taken any new pictures lately. Maybe I should start making more shorter posts more frequently, though :)
The rainy days are finally over and I enjoy the sun. Spring Break is already in two weeks. Crazy! Annaise is coming frim Canada and we rent a car and do a roadtrip. I can't wait for our fun-girls-on the road-enjoying-the-beach-and-party time. But till then I'll have to work hard... I am involved in three research projects and working on a new reaerch proposal right now. Also, the classes are very demanding. It is almost impossible to finish all the readings assigned. I love how every Lab and Department at the University just collaborates. In Germany, you are basically stuck with your lab, whereas here, you can work with different Professors and students from different Labs on all kinds of projects. You just need to put some effort into it.
Last week, I went to the movies and watched the documentary I AM by Tom Shadyac (founder of Jim Carrey, director of Aceventura, Liar, Liar, The nutty professor, Bruce Allmighty...). Well, he had a change of heart and did this documentary including the topic: Whats wrong with our world and what can we do to make it better? Click here to see the trailer . Our UC Berkeley Psychology Professor Dacher Keltner is in it, since the movie is (among others) based on two of his books. It was a lovely movie. Although it might not be the newest idea, it was still inspiring. After watching it, we all went to Jupitor (one of my favorite restaurants), had some wine and discussed. A very memorable night!
I have to go back to my readings and essays, have a great day everyone.
