i am a contrarian.

the night before meeting with the advisor, i feel as if i must accomplish something in mathematics, yet i really don't want to.

the night after meeting with the advisor, i feel like there's no need to rush and accomplish anything, yet i feel like doing mathematics anyway.

if you ever want me to do something, try reverse psychology. it might actually work.

    Reverse psychology can be quite successful with me. For example, yesterday I got an email [from a former student] with the subject line "Please Help, Please don't ignore".

    If I had $1,000,000 I would buy you a monkey.

    Haven’t you always wanted a monkey?
