More (fake) Graduation Talk

NYU weather for May 11. Blegh, not the best weather, but at least the rain won't (shouldn't, can't, hopefully not going to) come until the evening, and I rather like the idea of not baking in the sun while wrapped in my too-dense cap and gown and forced to listen to, oh, a few hours' worth of deans and "distinguished speakers" drone on and on. And in case it rains,

"There is no rain date. Commencement will take place rain or shine. If rain is heavy, the ceremony will be abbreviated. Participants should come prepared if inclement weather is expected on Commencement Day."

In other words, if it rains, too bad.

On the other hand, I'm very much looking forward to the post-ceremony reception. I have two to choose from, but it's no debate that I'm going to the Near Eastern Studies reception. That department has always fed me well :)

And I'm supposed to be in bed by now so I can wake up tomorrow at 7. But the Phoenix Suns is woefully losing into the beginning of the second half :p

Yup :)

I really like Outsider. It rings really true for teens in New York City even though the book was written many years ago. But it's a good book even if you're not from NYC.
