  • Capstone Presentation @ UW

    So tonight I went to this year’s Informatics Senior Capstone Presentation @ UW with Trevor, Ryan, David, Kevin, Darrin, and Sean. And I must say, it was a pretty fun evening. First it was just my usual joy at seeing familiar faces (including Tho To) and the usual suspects of the iSchool. As the program…

  • Gender and Conversation

    So while reading through blogs on MySpace (of all places), I read a summary about this old article written by Deborah Tannen, a linguistics professor at Georgetown, titled “Sex, Lies and Conversation; Why Is It So Hard for Men and Women to Talk to Each Other?“. And as much as I love generalizations about gender,…

  • Happy Memorial Day

    Poppies, originally uploaded by Popo Moo Cow. In Flanders Fields By John McCrae In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly. Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the dead. Short days ago We lived, felt…

  • Flickr’s New Look

    I dig the Flickr‘s new look! I especially like how the photostream is now displayed in multiple columns and the links are grouped together in drop-downs.

  • His Name is Hedwig

    I got a Mac Mini today! After months of putting it off, I finally bought one today. And it’s pretty sweet. Hopefully I don’t stay up too late playing with this thing.

  • Untitled #20

    Well I’m beat tired from Capoeira, but Stephen wanted an update–so this one’s for you! Paul came with me to Capeoira tonight for the first time (and did a good job!) so that was pretty fun to have him check it out. But man, it felt like the roda that would never end. My “Add…

  • Finally Upgraded

    Ooh. I finally installed WordPress 2.0.

  • Shiggidy Shiggidy

    I haven’t been blogging much. I think much of my day-to-day adventures are now being logged in this Moleskine notebook Ryan bought me for Christmas. Easier to write down phrases on hourly marked lines than come up with blog entries that I tirelessly edit, rearrange, and refresh twenty-six times. In sum, work’s been rather busy.…

  • Oh Time, Oh Me

    “There are not enough hours in the day,” my roommate and I often to say to each other at night. You know what it’s like, how in the midst of your hustle and bustle, you glance at the clock and feel that, “It’s already x o’clock?”-feeling. It’s been a familiar sentiment of mine lately. It…

  • Free typing test

    According to www.powertyping.com, I can type 105 words per minute! With 9 mistakes. This what Ryan and I do for fun because we’re awesome. Unfortunately, he can’t “remember” his score.
