Moving
I continue my habit of procrastinating on updates. Much has happened since I last posted. I've worked on research for the summer, learned my way around Seattle, and met some rather nifty people ( Read more... ) -
Alive. In Seattle. Doing fun stuff
A lot's happened since I last posted. I'm graduated. Went on a fun camping trip up the coast with many friends. Ended up in Seattle, where I'll be staying for some time ( Read more... ) -
Ear piercings
It's been a couple of weeks since it happened, but in the spirit of trying to get in the habit of updating Livejournal before I graduate...
My ears are now more topologically interesting! Little 14 gauge barbells through each lobe. I like the look, and they've been fairly comfortable. -
(Untitled)
Still off in Puerto Rico, and it is being fun and nice and warm. We spent a day in San Juan, then came out to Fajardo, on the east coast. Got to swim at the beach one day go up and hike in the El Junque rain forest up in the mountains today. Tomorrow, heading off to the little island of Culebra, a bit off the east coast of Puerto Rico ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
Tomorrow (or perhaps now it is this) morning I'll be heading off to Puerto Rico for almost all of the rest of break. I'll try to check email and LJ occasionally while I'm down there, but for the most part I'll be out of touch until I get back to Mudd.
Enjoy the first bits of 2006, y'all. -
Grades
Portal is now showing all my grades, but it is still only using 5/6 of my classes when calculating my GPA. Odd. I assume that that will be fixed eventually.
Not going to post specific grades here, but I am satisfied with them. Even PLs, although screwing up the date of the final did hurt me more than I would like, is not as bad as I had feared ( Read more... ) -
Late night snacks
Mmmm...
Being at home means much more choice for midnight snacks than microwaved-something back at Mudd. Last night: scrambled eggs with cheddar, parmesan, turkey bacon, and basil. Tonight I took my inspiration from Schlock Mercenary and made a chupaqueso (Another guide to making one). I only had sharp cheddar and parmesan, so I used cheddar ( Read more... ) -
Cold!
Yipes, it's cold here in Colorado. I went out five minutes early to catch the bus back to Boulder, and got reminded of what cold is. My breath puffing out in a strong, frozen cloud, the cold air on my bare arms and face, the crinkly feeling your face gets when you suddenly expose it to really cold air, the tickle of a few snowflakes brushing your ( Read more... ) -
21, teeth, and return
The other night I headed over to Denver to meet up with an old friend for dinner, cake, and a trip to the club to celebrate my 21st birthday. Unfortunately, a poorly-done filling in one of my molars decided to break in half and fall out. No good. My dentist's office is closed on Saturdays, but he offered to come in after his daughter's soccer ( Read more... ) -
New AIM screen name
I've been meaning to post this for some time now. I've abandoned my old AIM screen name in favor of
