Summer of '17

I started this blog in 2013. Now 4 years later I am going to tell myself how I spent my summer. I could say that it was great and probably it was too. But I, being a pessimist, would go with alright. So what's new.
I joined graduate school. I now think that I am stupidier than before. And I have already stopped reading novella and recreational math.
It was a sudden transition from my non travelling life to a 'frequent'ish traveller.
Since I arrived in Vancouver, I have already travelled to Atlanta, Edmonton and New York City.
I get to see lot of cultures and great mathematicians. But then its like being too close and too far. You can see them, touch them(if they get past your creepiness) but you cannot understand why they are important in the right sense. For most of them I would never be able to grasp their genius and their innovation in their writings because for one I might never be able to read their papers and another that I might be able to see their worth. After all, it takes a genius to know one.
Let's move on.
I did watch and love this series called BoJack Horseman on Netflix. It is very brilliant and dark. Two things I love.
I also attended some concerts which I would never dream of going to. For instance I saw Norah Jones, Bob Dylan (very old) and I am going later this year to a concert of Zakir Hussain (the guy who sells Taj Mahal tea).
I did spend a lot of time reading and researching. Discovered a very small new result.
Hope I can make some more progress in research. That would be the best.
