Murphys Law Gone Right

I am now a Johns Hopkins University graduate.  Do I feel any different?  No, not really.  I just have to practice saying “I just graduated from Hopkins”.  In time, I’ll get used to it.  After all, I just left Baltimore and began writing this blog on the tail end of my 3 day vacation at [...]

This time I’m blogging as I watch the Oscar pre-shows.  While I love seeing the dresses, I hate hate hate the E! announcers.  Between Ryan Seacrest and Juliana Rancic its painful.  As my sister just said “Ryan Seacrest just asked about Gerad Butler’s small dog.  Nice, Ryan, hard-hitting stuff”.    That pretty much sums it [...]

Well, I suppose this is my first time live-blogging.  I am currently watching USA vs Canada vie for the gold medal.   I have so dearly loved watching the Olympics, it will be sad tonight when they end. Throughout the last two weeks I have gone to Olympic parties, dressed up as a curler, had watching/studying [...]

Well, this will be my fourth and final birthday post.  It’s really amazing, I started Hopkins when I was only 17.  This minor fact didn’t hit me until my recent birthday festivities began with a cupcake celebration at work.  They mentioned how young I was when I first started.  Wow, time really does fly.  This [...]

This past week has been particularly busy, not necessarily in terms of school, but my life.  For someone who prides themselves on having such a great memory, I can’t for the life of me think what specifically has taken up so much time  in the past days.  I guess if you add up all the [...]

After the first week of classes, I am beginning to get back into the swing of things.  While many of my classes seem interesting, a lot of the discussion has been limited to course requirements and how many papers and exams we will have. Fun!  Besides the slightly boring classes, I was very happy to [...]

Halloween is this coming Wednesday and unfortunately I have two midterms on Wednesday and Friday.  Since I should really be studying for my Microeconomic Theory class, I think I will forgo the typical Baltimore Halloween celebrations.  What is a typical Baltimore Halloween celebration? Maybe I should say, where is THE Halloween celebration?  Fell’s Point, of [...]

In reality, I wish I could say “goodbye sunshine”.  Honestly, I bought a beautiful black trenchcoat at the beginning of the year (with a hood too) so I would be fully prepared for the Baltimore weather.  Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on your view, it has been very warm and sunny since the beginning of September.  [...]

Once again I am on the train back to Baltimore.  For someone who never went home first semester, I have been both going home and traveling a lot this semester.  I am just returning from a mini vacation.  I went home for the Easter holidays and had very relaxing time while still managing to be [...]

What a busy couple of weeks it has been.  First there was the Engineering and Natural Sciences Open House, Parents Weekend, and the dedication of Charles Commons all crammed into the same couple of days.  Plus the new book store opened with a Starbucks inside!! yay! Even though it has been truly hectic, I’ve enjoyed [...]
