Graduate School, the Countdown 30 Mar 2012 | 04:44 am
The last 6ish months have been centered around the one, final requirement for this MSEE I'll (hopefully!) be getting in May. All the previous stuff - coursework, homework, tests - those were just hoop...
A Simple Mantra 8 Mar 2012 | 07:46 am
It's not very often that I read a blog post that really makes me step back. One that makes me evaluate what I'm doing, how I approach that particular topic. And thank goodness for kickstarting this he...
Running 24 Feb 2012 | 06:41 am
I've been running since I was 7 years old. Competitively. I remember when I told my dad that I wanted to run the Sunburst 5K - he responded with a "well, why don't we try running that distance on the ...
