Construction outside my dorm. It constantly smells like exhaust, and I’m getting stone walled by everyone at NU housing when I try to do something about it.

A few interns and I went to Olympic National Park this weekend, and I took a few pictures. Here they are!

Emerald City Comicon 2010

Sun, 14 Mar 2010 20:28:56 -0700

Alex and I went to the Emerald City Comicon (EmeraldCityCon) today at the Seattle Convention Center and it was quite the adventure. We saw all types of people dressed up in some pretty impressive costumes—many of which I did not recognize because, apparently, I did not read enough comic books as a child. I didn’t take that many pictures because I didn’t want to seem like a creep, but I realized after a while that it was generally acceptable to snap pictures of anyone in costume.

Despite the massive amount of people, there was not a large line to meet some of the members of The Guild so I got to meet Robin (Clara), Jeff (Vork), and Sandeep (Zaboo)! I almost got in line to meet Leonard Nimoy, but I soon realized that it was not worth the wait, especially since I have never really been a fan of Star Trek. Jhonen Vasquez, the creator of Invader Zim, was also in attendance but his line was almost as long as Leonard Nimoy’s, so I skipped out on that too.

If you’re interested in seeing a few of the costumes, you can find the photos here.

Chicken and Beer

Mon, 08 Mar 2010 00:48:40 -0800

Alex, Pat, and I went out to try and find the best chicken wings in the city. Along the way, we ended up near the University of Washington and went inside of one of their facilities to explore for a bit. We tried 4 or 5 places, and came to the disheartening conclusion that Hooters actually had the best wings that we could find. Perhaps we will continue the quest again this weekend? I don’t know if I’ll be able to make it though, because I will probably be hitting the trails again!

I had my camera with me so I took the opportunity to snap a few shots. I still have a lot to learn, but here goes nothing. (Let me know what you think!)

Soaring Eagle and St. Edward's Park

Sun, 28 Feb 2010 08:33:25 -0800

Sorry for the complete absence of posts for the past few weeks, I’ve been lost and now I’m back. Here are the two rides I’ve done since you last heard from me:

Soaring Eagle, 2/20/2010

St. Edward’s Park, 2/27/2010

Both were relatively short, since we had fewer riders than usual, and yesterday I was sick :( Hopefully, this upcoming week will yield a longer ride!

Home Sick from Work

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 17:12:58 -0800

When you’re in grade school, being sick is usually a blessing. Most of the time, you’re not actually that ill—even if you are you just watch tv all day while you eat soup. Best of all you don’t fall behind because you can do your algebra problems between home room and first period the next day. It’s ironic that when you’re in the work force being sick is a terrible thing. You fall behind on work, you grow out of touch with what’s happening at work, and you lose money. For the past 3 days, I have been working from home or bedridden on my couch wishing that I could be at work. I really enjoy my job, so staying home is exceedingly boring. I’ve read my camera’s manual 5 times now, and have practically memorized its menus; I’m going crazy.
