Since May

Happy end of 2011.

Since graduation, my life has taken some unexpected turns; as I somewhat expected it would. At graduation, I lost that which occupied the majority of my waking life since I was 5. The day after graduation, I lost the most important person in my life. In November, I lost my career, apartment, and purpose.

If nothing else, I guess I learned another lesson in attachment. I've got more to complain about, but we've all faced difficulties.

Anywhom, here are some books I've read since graduation (in decreasing recommendation):
The Good Book - Grayling
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance - Pirsig
Skinny Legs and All - Robbins
The Spirit Molecule - Strassman
Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming - LeBerge
Blink - Gladwell
Naked Pictures of Famous People - Stewart
Machine Design - Norton
Physics of the Future - Kaku
The Fractional Calculus - Oldham
The Divine Proportion - Huntley
The Alchemist - Coelho
Project Icarus (1979) - MIT
Handbook to Higher Consciousness - Keyes
Meditation : The Complete Guide - Monaghan
That's Not What I Meant - Tannen
The Prophet - Gibran
The Art of Imperfection - Vienne

-- Haven't Finished --
Evolve Your Brain - Dispenza
Masterpieces of World Philosophy - Magill
Confidence Men - Suskind
Synergetics - Fuller

... bet you didn't see that coming. And while we're off topic, here are some concerts I've attended since graduation: A Perfect Circle, Primus, Bassnectar, Deadmau5, Amber Vexation, Skream, Pretty Lights, STS9, Umphrey's McGee.
