Do the Grouse Grind more than just 1x a week

Listen to hours worth of accumulated BBC podcasts, ones that I never got around to

Read The Lancet through ScienceDirect, especially The Lancet Infectious Diseases

Finish the last two chapters of Tall Tales About the Mind & Brain, which has been collecting dust for nearly a month now

Play saxophone during the day, as opposed to playing at midnight inside the sweaty, humid back-seat of a car, hidden underground

…etc.

But, the concept of time is very subjective

might as well make the most of it

To bed, to bed!

    Agreed.

    The severe lack of time is truly depressing.

    It’s summertime! Isn’t this the prime time for checking off those to-do lists now that the sun doesn’t set until late evening?

      … or how darkness retreats as soon as the seagulls are out ‘n about? Yup, the living is mostly easy apart from classes, work, and more classes.

      sdasst4? I didn’t know that there are so many of you :P

    What’s your time for the Grind? If our times are similar maybe we can hit the trail together sometime :D

      It varies from time to time. For me, there’s a negative-correlation between the number of hikes and time. (Gah! I feel like I’m writing a research paper — must stay in this mind-set though, until classes end.)

      Best time so far, 53 minutes. I usually leave for Grouse at 7:00 in the morning on Saturdays to avoid the tourist traffic.

      Yeah, let’s.

    Oh dear, I had middle-aged ladies in MEC Spandex totally schooling me on the Grind the last/first/only time I’ve attempted it, which was near two years ago now. Guess I should give it a go again one of these summer days.

    How are classes going, by the way?

    Oh, and this may just find itself on the above list… but you may find the following interesting as well: brain puzzles being analyzed for research purposes by the Vision Lab and the Social Neuroscience and Psychopathology Lab at Harvard University, at http://www.testmybrain.org.

      Classes are going quite well, thanks. I find the experience intrinsically and extrinsically rewarding.

      Test My Brain? Cool — will check it out.
