Proclaims a long distance friend – in the sense of proximity and to this movement. Both of which she would confirm to. But the reality is it did and wallowing will get many nowhere, especially now. Just shy of the 2 month mark Zucotti, in its capacity, similarly to other parts of the country, has […]

The Unplanned Plan.
Lately, I’ve felt so numb in the brain for going OCD on planning about my education. I’m starting to think that maybe I should take a brief break after graduation… Ideally, I would like to travel and/or gain some work experience.

Budding Naturalists From a single sweetgum ball, a love of nature was spawned for Ned Barnard and passed along to Ken Chaya, and to us, a dozen naturalists and geographers on a fall tree walk in Central Park (just a short train ride away from Queens College).

But while I knew the algorithmic steps behind taking limits, finding derivatives, calculating integrals, I did […]

On the Road / Final Thoughts
I’m writing this from a bus on my way back from Toronto. My fiancé moved to Canada this summer and I’ve been visiting her as much as i can these past few months. Not easy but definitely worth it! I think Canada is very underrated, but perhaps I am biased and simply enjoy seeing a […]
