And like that, semester two of grad school comes to a close. I have some course evaluations to complete and some grades to get back, but for all intents and purposes I’m done with this semester. Then it’s time to choose a class for next semester and drop down to part time status.
Alex’s students have their recital this week, which means starting tomorrow I get to be up to my elbows in flour and sugar making baked good bribes rewards for the students. What I’m really looking forward to, however are making some sauerkraut and kimchi, a couple soups, some bacon and other goodies to get us through the winter months.
Then it’s time to get my workflow figured out. I’ve been all over trying out different kinds of software from DevonThink to Pages and Mendeley for document management (I think I’ll go with DevonThink and Mendeley), but I want to work out how best to integrate this all with WordPress for documenting my studies and research.
Between semesters I have to clean up my databases, get all my pdfs sorted with proper citations and tags. Then it’s time to update my LinkedIn and Academia.edu pages. Lots to do in four weeks. Best to get on it.
