It has been ages since I have last written here. My mind's eye is squinting at some obscure number...1.5 years? Good gracious really? Has it been that long? There has been much prodding and poking from the lovely Cara Martin and the wonderful people at CSO to see if...
It's been a long time; way too long. I've been thinking about, planning, and have written posts, but I haven't followed through on execution. And, in large, this is what this post is about. There are times when things get put off. It's inevitable with college....
Well, I suppose it's quite appropriate that this post would be about a fairly large event in my life given that my last post was months ago. It's been 3 months since I traded in case studies for problem sets. I transferred from Babson College to the University of...
This what you should do in your summer before starting college: have a freaking blast! And while you have a freaking blast, make sure you do all of your tedious college stuff. Like enrolling in a payment plan, getting your health insurance straight (Massachusetts has...

I think the post title sums it all up, hah. I am tempted to make a Vlog, like my fellow scholar, and perhaps I will ride his coat tails later on. But that is the biggest tip I can tell you. You should definitely check out your schools' deadlines just to make sure...
I was going to keep some of the more major things I've been doing at college under wraps, but in light of a series of events that have occured back home I feel the need to stop being so abstract and "wise man" like and show maybe proof that the sky's the limit...
This is post is going to be a McFlurry of things - just a heads up. I was recently talking to a friend of mine at Babson, Alex, and he told me he wanted to transfer to Stanford or USC [both in his home state]. But he said "Man, but I may just give up on Stanford, my...
...but I don't think any of us needs a day to give thanks. I must say I am thankful for all things here - from my freedom of speech to the fact that my mom calls me every day [yes every day haha]. I would shed some light on my past and tell you why I'm thankful for...
