In life we are not always judged based on who we are, as what we do, how we think and what kind of a person we are. Often we are perceived based on our more obvious, quick but shallow, and stereotypical characteristics rather than our personal and more defining qualities such as honesty, integrity, neatness, […]
Month: November 2010
Lamb is my favorite vegetable.
Meat is evil. But it really tastes damn good. I was a vegetarian for so long that eating became more of a chore rather than a pleasurable experience. For vegetarians the meal is either of two extremes: quick, raw and usually tasteless or extremely elaborate and time consuming to make. Now I became a vegetarian […]
Pass/No Credit Classes = Giving Up?
I must thank the academic gods for pass/no credit classes. Seriously. I actually didn’t even know this option existed. Had I known about this when I started college this past August, it would have cut my stress level in half. I wasn’t entirely worried about most of my classes, except when it comes to history… […]
Cuny First? I Don’t Think So.
One thing about me–I’m not a big fan of change. It’s like they say: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Yet here we are, ushering out the simple, beloved, student-friendly eSims and welcoming the new Cuny First system. I think I speak for a lot of people when I say, why? eSims is extremely […]
CUNYfirst
I want to be very careful about what I write about CUNYfirst. I don’t want to be the one sparking a lot of criticism and negativity about CUNYfirst but as far as I know there has been already a great deal of disappointing experiences with CUNYfirst considering that it has not yet even been a […]
reflect.
SFN was a wonderful experience. I wasn’t overwhelmed at all. Actually, I felt quite comfortable exploring the pools of posters, publishers, protesters and sales people. I stalked my favorite neuroscientists, went to symposium after symposium, spoke to David Eagleman twice (he is completely full of himself), bought a brain atlas and 8 more books, went to […]

Vet Day
The Army bands in the Veteran’s Day parade, marching past the office building on Fifth Ave, sound peculiarly like a mix of Korean folk music, the sweater-vest patriotism of Charles Ives, and the theme score for The Terminator movies. Guys dressed up in desert fatigues standing around Humvee tanks; men in green dress raiment and […]
College?
When did the generally accepted idea of college become: ”I want to get a degree so I can get a good paying job.” That sells the whole concept of education short for the majority of people. If a person’s mind is focused on getting through college so he/she can get to the next step in […]
Youtube Galore
So…. for this week I thought I’d share some of the interesting videos I’ve encountered in the past few weeks:
The music building has their occasional youtube video share parties, and so all we do when we’ve got the time (aside from being practice-room hermits…) is to gather around someone’s tiny …
