Welcome to my blog, filled with musings about life and more. You can view recent posts below, but can also sort by category, tags, or year.

Some personal highlights:

Many of my blogs are hosted on MIT Admissions, where I was an official blogger my senior year, and an occasional poster at the start of graduate school.
