I forgot a lot of 2011...
I guess I went on more trips than I realized. I forgot to mention my friend Miranda's wedding in New York in May, and visiting my sister in DEATH VALLEY (they aren't kidding about that) in the summer. And I did just go to London, but consider that part of "being in Milan" since it's a quick hop. Whuff, a busy year. -

Dooms of all types.
The final week of wine tasting was awesome. We did tastings on geography, tastings on vintage, and tasting of expensive, rare, and special wines. That was pretty fun. I recommend "In Vino Veritas" to anyone at MIT. It was totally worth it. I mean, I feel like the class fee covered the wines, and on top of that the extensive tasting notes, ( Read more... ) -
Working It!
Hey all. IAP is still doing it's thing, though this is the last week.
I've been busy! I don't think I mentioned that mzsylver, ebenezer, and I went to see the last show of "Rare Exports" at the Kendall Square Theater.

Credits to Anton for finding this one. It cracks me up. My sister insists it's the dancing that makes it funny.
Enjoy! -

Basically I had a very pleasant trip home to San Francisco two weekends ago, and this last weekend Ross and I went up to Otis to relax at his aunt and uncle's house on Gate Island ( Read more... )
