Grad school has forced me to become more studious. This has manifested itself through longer hours working on campus and me unplugging my Roku player to force myself to refrain from watching endless netflix. But that has caused me to watch lots and lots of online videos, several of which have recently graced this blog. Well, here's another fun video to enjoy!

A Life on Facebook (HD) from Tomás Cunha on Vimeo.

(It should be noted that another side effect of grad school is the increased amount of time I spend on facebook, which might explain, in part, my fondness for this particular video entertainment. The extent to which facebook is part of my daily life is sad and little bit unnerving, and I think this particular animation does a pretty good job conveying that feeling.)

i love you, david tennant.

since leaving new york, i have been unfortunately but pleasantly unemployed. during these few weeks of free time i have accomplished many things. one such thing is watching the first four seasons of the dr. who reboot, including the specials that followed the fourth season.

conclusion: dr. who is extremely entertaining and i am officially in love with david tennant. the new boy who took is place is foxy and all, and i do like his bow-tie/suspenders combination, but i think the tenth doctor tops him. plus, i often sport burgundy high top chuck taylors, too.

secondary conclusion: the roku netflix streamer is a great investment. especially if you are like me, without cable and a proper computer to stream on.

tertiary conclusion: it's amazing the amount of things you can get done (and television you can get watched) when you don't have to go to work (or school) everyday.
