So I woke up this morning anxious to see how the elections ended up in the country and in Wisconsin. I must say that I've never been so crushed to see that not only did Wisconsinites approve amending the constitution, they also approved reinstating the death penalty. I just don't get it. How can you support killing other people? I realize the whole ( Read more... )

So I don't know how many of you know who he is, but I just met and touched! Pharrell williams from the producing hitmakers The Neptunes. Yes, he is kinda small, but so down to earth and very courteous. I met him in the lobby of the hotel that I'm staying in for this research conference in Miami. So, he showed up for a charity event for Isreal...why ( Read more... )

Not really but almost...I just finished the first draft of my paper for my write up on my research over the summer. YAY! After that, it's the poster, then the final presentation. Then, half a weekend in New York with my mother, YaY ( Read more... )

Could I have it? Do you ever have a stretch of time, be it a few hours or a few days, when you just can't concentrate one thing for more than a few minutes. Lately, that's been happening to me, specifically the last 48 hours. It's really bizarre because the things I really want to focus on, I get sidetracked and then start surfing the web looking ( Read more... )

Ok, so that was probably one of the most dissappointing ways to end what looked like was going to be a really nice match. There was tension, there were goals scored in regulation, it looked like there was going to be an exicting finish, and regardless of whether France won or not, it would be a nice way to see Zidane end his career ( Read more... )

Ok, so Italy got Germany at the end. An exciting or kinda opposite way to end a somewhat boring game. But I'm happy they got through ( Read more... )
