Update!

Short update:

I went downtown today and bought a new power cable for my laptop. Although it set me back a bit, it will be worth it in the long run.

I was hoping I'd be able to pop into the computer lounge and send off my Statement of Purpose to some very generous eyes, but alas I only have access to email or blogspot from the lab computers and not my own. The purpose, as well as an old blog post, will have to wait until I get a flashdrive, which should arrive by the end of the week.

I start teaching tomorrow at 8am! Don't know quite what to do with them yet - I have choices! Will be working on that tonight.

Wish me luck!

Ben
