the hardest part

of research is reading. i can FIND papers all day, no problem.

but then i have to sit down and READ the motherfuckers? that's no good.

the best part: what do i do to procrastinate? read blogs, read the stranger, re-read the entire lord of the rings trilogy. so i read to avoid reading. genius. but as we all know, there's reading and then there's reading.

informal poll: what do you do if someone says something to you repeatedly in a language you don't understand?
a. repeat the phrase
b. assume they are trying to be understood and attempt to translate
c. turn up the music, shrug your shoulders and mouth "i can't hear you"
if i get enough responses, i might have a valid argument, so don't hold back.

Oh, as for your poll, I think I might answer all of the above, but my first reaction was A.
