TASI
I found out yesterday that I was admitted to the TASI 2007 summer school in Boulder, Colorado. That was quite a pleasant surprised, I was not expecting to be admitted as there were a lot of MIT applicants. I'm excited, the topic this year is "string universe" (it is interesting I was admitted, as I know little to no string theory). The lecturers and topics can be found here . I am most excited about (the) Intriligator's lecture on SUSY breaking, and about David Tong's lectures on solitons and low dimesional gauge theories. MIT locals Barton Zwiebach and Hong Liu will also be speaking and they are always crowd pleasers (and the are 2/3 of my exam committee, so let's hope they read this complement).

OH MY GOD. Look at all these posts! I think you should have a little contest with yourself. "30 posts in 30 days" or some such.
And, hi! Congratulations on the fellowship!!
I'll stop with the rapid-fire posting in a sec, but first: I thought string theory was your special area of interest? Are you sure you're not already studying that? Go check again. Anytime I meet someone from MIT I tell them I have a friend there studying string theory. (It's so hard to say. My Broca's area has more practice saying "string CHEESE" and sometimes that comes out instead.)
Your blog died again. What's up with that?
