February 26, 2005: I am back home in Connecticut. Spring Break for the University of Michigan has started. I don’t think they call it “Spring Break” since technically Spring isn’t for another month. I feel like UM is the only school that is off this week. I almost didn’t make it home on my flight [...]

This is not a fun week for me. I had an exam today (Monday), I have one tomorrow (and a lab in the same class!) and I have a 3rd exam on Wednesday. None of this is fun! The exam today went pretty well, I think I got most of it (hopefully all of it) [...]

This morning I had a phone interview with Motorola. It was scheduled for 10:30am but when I it got to be 10:25 I realized that they were on central standard time and I had woken up an hour too early. Anyways, so the interview went fine — I have another one scheduled for Thursday with [...]

Today has been an interesting day. Before I get into the gossip of my day I will start off by continuing a rumor that is spreading over the internet. Apparently Google has decided to move blogs to the bottom of search results. I don’t know if it’s true but it would be a bold statement [...]

I just finished my take-home exam. The exam reads
“This exam should take between 4-5 hours but you have 24 hours to complete it.”
Lets see, I picked the exam up at 11am. I started working on it till noon. I went home and worked on it until 1 (so now we’re up to an 1.5 [...]

I was thinking about nicknames lately. I’ve had a few over the years and some of them have stuck (smiley especially) and lately “A-Bot” is picking up. I decided to make a list of all my nicknames so …. The following is a listing of nicknames that I’ve been called throughout the years. It’s somewhat [...]

It’s 2:49am and I’m still awake? I guess I got a little bit hyper and decided I needed to fix my webpage. When I had upgraded to the new blog version I guess I killed the leftquark.net homepage, the pictures page and the contact me page. I updated them all to the new layout so [...]

So Jaime, Julie, Casey, Dan, and I went to Rattlesnake Saloon tonight. It was so much fun! It’s a country bar and I was amazed at how the people do these line dances and they all manage to do the same exact steps at the same time. The beats change and they all just miraculously [...]

As you can see the new blog is up and posted. You shouldn’t notice too much different, just a few slight template changes. I think it looks nice. It’s a little bit whiter than before which I might decide to change at some point in the future (we will see). Leave your comments and let [...]
