wooden’s seven points

Be true to yourself.
Make each day your masterpiece.
Help others.
Drink deeply from good books, especially the Bible.
Make friendship a fine art.
Build a shelter against a rainy day.
Pray for guidance.
Count and give thanks for your blessings every day.

-John Wooden

what i do

some of you probably wonder what i do. this week it’s largely been writing and arguing over every sentence of this document. Incidentally, it also describes a good deal of what i’m doing during the rest of my life too…

weekly updates

the NSF proposal continues to take up my time. joy.

oh, and i have a test next week. joy.

good news from yesterday:

1. apple lost my ipod in transit. that sounds bad, but my week of waiting and reporting it missing resulted in a brand-new in the box 20gb color ipod. oh, and this morning, i checked the tracking number on the old one and noticed that it’s been sent back to apple. they found it yesterday in houston. darn.

2. boston fans will know the meaning of 14-2.

3. NYY fans will know the meaning of 4-2.

at any rate, hopefully will get more time to post soon.
