There are many things that are awesome about Stanford. One of these many awesome-tastic features is the fact that we get an entire week off for Thanksgiving. At Caltech, we only got Thursday and Friday off, and most professors considered it a normal week of school when scheduling work for the week. We decided to [...]
Things have seemed so busy recently… I think I may not have written anything on the blog since just after Indian Creek, which is probably a month ago at this point. I will hopefully have time to catch up on my backlog of activities, but here are the highlights: I went to Hawaii with other [...]
Lizzy an I are back in SoCal after a wonderful week in the Utah Desert. We really had a fun time at Indian Creek and hanging out in Moab. I’ll get into more details nd write a proper Trip Report once we get some photos downloaded later this week. We got back yesterday after an [...]
My first “class” (only kind of a class since it’s an interesting seminar with free dinner) is tomorrow and will signal the end of my winter break. I’m definitely excited to jump into the new year – the last 2 terms at Caltech, hopefully a grad school acceptance letter, and lots of new adventures. I’d [...]
We now have about 8 inches at our house, which is less than 100ft above sea level. And it’s still snowing. Snowy house To distract myself from worrying about my flight tomorrow, Maddy and I went sledding. It was sweet. Maddy also built a snow daschund, which is also pretty sweet. Setting up for the [...]
Watch funny videos on the internet! These are two of my absolute favorites and I hadn’t watched them in a while, but they’re just as good as they were the first time I saw them. Enjoy!

After weeks and weeks of sunny weather and 80-90 degree temps, we were beginning to wonder if “winter” just wasn’t going to happen in SoCal this year. But now, apparently, it has arrived. As I’m sitting here in Luke’s (cold!) house in San Diego, it’s raining and windy outside in a way that makes me [...]
I really like visiting Seattle and the surrounding region. Here’s why: Moist air – great for the skin Trees – they’re green and they make the air smell nice Clouds – I miss them here in SoCal Friends and family – it’s nice to catch up with everyone Rock climbing – just being closer to [...]
Luke meant to post this on Friday, but he forgot… Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving! ~Lizzy I am a go-go-go person. I like doing as much as possible. I am happy when I fall asleep instantly at the end of the day due to fatigue. At the same time I like things to be [...]
