I spent half of my spring break at home, and half of my spring break at Phil's. While I was at home, my mom took her afternoons off work so we ate lunch together every day. I got to try fried green tomatoes for the first time (apparently a Southern delicacy). They were sour, greasy and quite tasty.


Phil planned cute dates for us while I was in Cincinnati. We spent the first night eating peeps, and playing Mario Kart. We spent one afternoon at the Newport Aquarium and one afternoon at the Cincinnati Zoo. There was also a shopping and ice cream date.


I got back to MIT yesterday with a horribly dirty messy dorm room and loads of work waiting for me.


Coming up this week:


Today: a sneak preview of Michael Condry's new film, "The Science of Sleep". And he'll be there for a Q & A session. I loved "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" so I'm really looking forward to this.


Thursday: my prefrosh is coming. Though I have tons of work, I decided to host a prefrosh. As a senior, I want to help someone decide to come to this place I love so much, if it ends up being right for them.


Friday: MIT's Hanami party. And I will be performing a fan dance with some girls from the Japanese student association. I hope I can memorize the dance by then!




Did you know that having birds on you tickles...a lot? Hehe, we fed birds at the Newport Aquarium.

The sting ray Sweet Pea at the Aquarium had a birthday.



Lots of flamingos at the zoo.


oh, and my album is updated.
