Hello Again

First of all, I would like to say hello...I'm back...and I appreciate how everyone waits until I post something saying that I will not be posting for awhile to post comments. Maybe that is a sign to just stop this thing together...who knows.

Anyway, a lot have been going on. I have officially begun my thesis and have my prospectus due in roughly a month...which is freightening in itself. As for my topic, I am utilizing the early results from my grant (which evalutes trust perceptions of traditional versus non-traditional advertisements) to conduct a further analysis of the results in cultural terms. Specifically, my results differ from the study through which I adapted my methodological process thus I will follow up with my participants to see if the differences are in fact culturally related (as the adapted study was conducted on a Sweedish population) or if it was merely a result of the stimuli utilized in my study. Sounds nerdy, but I believe that is my true colors beginning to show. Mathmatically it is laid out as such:

Dan = Nerd

Pretty straight forward.

So as to not make this return post longer than necessary, I will conclude by saying that the Ph.D. apps are done (thankfully) and that if you are in need of new music to check out The Killer's new album, Day & Age.
