so, for those of you who may not already know, i am on my way to Urbana-Champaign for my second visit, this one post-acceptance. i'm mainly going up to try to arrange for a place to live (i'm very very picky about that) and kind of try to get a feel for the town, the social scene, etc. i don't want to be totalyl blank when i get there; the transistion will be rough enough as it is. also, i'm goign to meet with some of my future professors again, to ask them more specific questions, now that it's not only theoretical that i'll be there. and finally, it will eb a nice break from work, which has been rather hectic and draining of late. i'll do my best to post here with reports from the field.
