Let’s get something straight…
When I pass people off to their proper community board representatives I’m often met with the attitude that I’m “too dumb” to handle their issue myself. Not true. It is what I am instructed to do. The attitudes that I am given on a daily basis are so trying. Another thing I love is getting […]
Sleep.
I hate being sick. It drains the happiness out of me. I’m not a giddy person to begin with, so having to wipe my nose six hundred times a night while my whole body feels like it’s being boiled alive makes me super grumpy. It’s pretty obvious that today pretty much sucked. I studied a […]
Is it worth it?
I was talking to one of my friends from back home on the phone last week and she asked me “what made you decide to go to NYC of all places, and with all of those people?” I had all of my answers. It’s where I was accepted to school, the city offers lots of […]

The Rise of the Rest
What does Tevatron closure mean for big US science? (BBC) This past summer, I tuned into a live broadcast of the final launch of NASA’s shuttle program while I was at work. It was one of the few times I actually waited to watch an amazing event like a space launch. A few weeks later, […]

何?! 「What?!」
[ These are some things that surprised me, and made me go “NANI?!”] First day of class, and the minute you settle in the teacher tells you…”We’re going to have a pop quiz. If you fail it, you will be placed into the lower level class.” 「何？！」This was my first class of my Japanese school life, […]
