New Art!

It took a while, but it's done!
The first one was done for a friend. And the second, took a long time so I'm glad its done

Finally some justice

So I read this story, I think it was Seattle, about cops actually ticketing people who drive below the speed limit in the left lane. The left lane is meant for passing, so when people are going slow, they are actually breaking the law since people need to pass them on the right just to get by. All states need to start this because one of the things I hate most is slow drivers in the left lane.

Not to mention that my friend from NY also complained about Virginia drivers.

Pictures of the South

So I decided to try something new. Since I do some traveling, I want to document some of the things I see. Like the giant cars they give me when I ask for the smallest possible and all the great southern things that we used to joke about and never actually thought existed. This should be fun.

The first picture is from a trip to North Carolina. This is one of the only restaurants in the area.

Then came the car rental. Does one person really need such a big car when she first asks for the smallest available?

Piggly Wiggly actually exists and its a supermarket. Wow!

This is from my last trip. Better, but still bigger than I'm used to.

Fun link to waste time

Go to this site. It's quite fun though odd. A friend sent it to me and I still play with it every day.

My first day of workout

So I finally decided to workout which I've been promising myself I would start since January.

January didn't work since I was traveling alot.

February didn't work either since I hurt my shoulder and could hardly move it.

So I finally started and how do I start? I first forget the code to get into the gym. Then some guy with his two kids are in there, the kids playing all over the machine which is just annoying. Then after working out for only 15 minutes, the elliptical machine stopped working and then 5 minutes later, the machine reset itself. I am not starting on a good foot.

Working Smart

So during senior year at Cornell, we had two of the toughest classes on the campus - Unit Operations and Senior Design. These two classes kept us ChemEs locked in the basement computer lab (aka The Dungeon) and it took forever to get the assigment done because we followed the first column.


During MEng, the same professor gave us this sheet, which talks about working harder vs. working smarter. And I will say, the second column did work out better without sucking the life of me.
