Today is Thanksgiving Day. The library and the gym are
closed as well as grocery stores. In a particular day like today, I try
something different. First, I made a breakfast.
French Toast, Sausage (No Preservative) and Hot Chocolate
I completed the oral prelim on Friday. Joe said he had not heard
anyone who can complete it in two hours. Even so, I don’t feel relaxed. The job
market is open, but I haven’t finished my job market paper. I don’t know why I
did not figure out this last year so that I could finish it in this summer. The
oral prelim is just the beginning of the end. Challenges are still there.
Chapel in Duke University
While stepping out of the gym, I found it is raining.The heavy rain refreshed the air. Now it smells fresh and cool. But I remembered the clothes hung on the garment rack in the balcony might get wet. It really irritated me. I kept my life simple to move forward with papers for the doctorate degree and the job. But there are always bad surprises waiting. I've cancelled any trip in this year. I thought I could go to visit New York and watch the opera in Broadway in October. Now all are put off.
The private study room in the library is my sancturary.
Last month I searched for apartments with one-bed rooms or
studios in Raleigh and north Cary. Most one-bed rooms were not available,
especial those with reasonable rent rates. Those that were vacant have steep
rates. The leasing companies didn't need to worry about that since lots of
perspective customers would come to Raleigh soon. Raleigh is growing so the
housing cost increases year by year.
