Third Time’s the Charm

Hi all. I’m back yet again.

I got inspired to update this place again after fixing everything up. Most of the stuff on this site now works (like the photos finally) and I’ve added some new things as well. I have a new Twitter account that’s displayed on the right side of this page (reminiscent of Facebook status updates). I’ve also updated the contact page with SMS functionality if you really want to reach me (I don’t know what for) that badly.

All that aside, so much has gone on since I last posted here in June. It seems almost fruitless to even mention all that has gone on since then so I’m not even going to try. :shock:

Currently, we’re just coming off a huge Heps victory. It feels absolutely incredible to be a part of something like Heps (Ivy Leage track and field championship) and I’m hoping to make the Heps squad come outdoor season. Even as a non-competitor this time around, the atmosphere and the excitement were just amazing. Continue reading ‘Third Time’s the Charm’

Back to skool and other shenanigans

Wow, it’s been awhile since I’ve updated this joint. It’s been pretty ridiculous since school started. It’s been all good so far, classes are good, people are cool as usual with the exception of calc class, sleeping all through pre-calc last year certainly didn’t help my case. With the start of school, also comes the annual assembly with the raffle of some pretty nice stuff. Being a senior, and a lifer, it hurts deep in my soul to have not won so much as a pack of gummy bears in 7 years…

On a different note, last week I did an official visit to Cornell University. It was a jolly good time, I spent the weekend hangin’ out with the track team, went to a Strokes concert and went to some classes, most notably Psych 101. Due to the world renowned professor, the class is a mind boggling 1500 students. Also I got to hold THE torch used at the 1984 summer Olympic Games, which was kind of a big deal for me. Anyways Cornell is pretty sweet and if anyone is unsure about applying there, I’d say defiantly do it because it’s a great school that has a lot to offer, not to mention some of the best dining halls anywhere. I was actually surprised by the size of the city surrounding it, I expected Ithaca to be much more rural than it was. While the visit was totally sweet, the college application process totally sucks.

So senior year has been pretty good so far, despite a rocky start. There’s only 121 days left…:shock:
So is anyone else applying to Cornell?
