My ears are still ringing.

The Green Day/Jimmy Eat World concert was awesome. What a show. Jimmy though is much better in a smaller venue, but it was still fun to see them. Green Day rocked the place and Dan and I had so much fun down there near the stage on the field. No doubt one of the most impressive concerts I have ever been to.

It's kind of amazing how much I've been cramming into my weekends so far this semester. It makes me wonder what I was doing my whole time as an undergrad here. I didn't have that much homework. I guess I just spent a lot of time sitting around the house relaxing or going home to Mountain View. Both of which, I must say, can be equally enjoyable at times.

But the running joke with a few of the friends I've made in grad school is that I didn't do my undergrad here...because when they ask me "Oh Nick, have you heard about this place here in Berkeley" or "Hey Nick, have you been to this bar" or, "Hey Nick, what's your favorite place to go in Tilden Park"....I often don't have an answer. It's really strange, but kind of good in a way since it seems like it's gonna take more than another two years for me to ever get bored with this place.

But after a thursday of happy houring, a friday of partying, and a saturday of hiking/concert going...it's now time for a sunday of work. School, you know. It's the whole reason I'm here.

Right?

Right.
