Photo from Üetliberg yesterday, from our team hike up for dessert at a restaurant at the top. Learn, question, help, and rock-out-loud at my internship. So far Ive been really excited about the overlap my internship has been having with my interests, thesis, and projects for next year. What luck! Practice German. Trying to try, except…
All posts in my day
And so begins my summer…
View from the Grössmunster bell tower When I studied German in high school I was always confused by the word glück. It means happiness and luck and I never knew when to use one or the other. It’s most often translated as “happy.” But how do you say you’re lucky? I asked my host and she…

Man was April a rough month. If anyone tells you otherwise they’re lying. I didn’t do much besides work. What is sad (besides sleep deprivation) is that all the second-years are graduating! Pictured of above is Robyn, who I TA-ed under on our last day of class. So sad!
5: Things left on my Spring To-Do list
Final projects. Sounds simple but it’s 2 programming projects, 1 video sketch, 1 presentation, a seven-stanza poem written into a handmade book in different calligraphy styles (by hand, for calligraphy class), and a 3,000-word final paper Thesis proposal.

New camera for new adventures
The facts are these: I am a terrible photographer but I would like to take more pictures during the summer. I have a Canon 20D that was bequeathed to me by my father, but I found it difficult and frustrating to use and it was too big to bring anyway anyway. After a lot of…
5: Things on my mind
I have had so much on my mind lately. I feel like I need a few more years to figure out everything and at least two life times to do everything that I want to do! Interaction design. I know that sounds cheesy because I’m studying it, but I have been obsessing about interaction design…

Interviewing a judge, Andrew Blauvelt, during PGH365 with special guest appearance of my double chin. Photo by Vinita Israni. (The lighting was super dark). Overall, March was a pretty good month. Spring break, lots of reading, and some good news!
5: Things I did over spring break (so far)

Alright, I went out the country (see my previous blog post), had 12 interviews, and picked a thesis topic. Basically February came at me like a ravenous lion.
PHAMETRICS // 21
I know I’m 15 days late and so much has happened in February already, but I’ll try to recap January the best I can and talk about February at the end of this month to get back on schedule. Hold on to your horses, I’ll right about my trip to Europe soon!
