I started a Python (+ Ruby?) class last week and I'm sitting in a cafe doing my first week of "homework." It's probably 90 outside and like 50 inside - there's no winning in this climate-controlled world of extremes.

I am ridiculously excited to be learning useful things and becoming empowered. I am a weirdly competitive student and all we've done ( Read more... )

This semester I'm going to try out being one of those girls who lives in the library until my papers are done.

I made a wish on my friend's laptop today because it was 11:11am when we glanced at the clock. I missed liking real people.
