my sister is a weirdo :)

So, my little sister scored a 5 on her AP Bio, Chem, and English Language tests her soph year in HS.

And she thinks I have no life... puh-lease :P

rain, books

This morning as I was walking back to my room, it started to rain. So I ran to a covered walkway in order to stay dry. A few hours later, after the sun had come up, I went outside and noticed that almost all the water on the ground had evaporated. You couldn't even tell that it had just rained... until you looked under the covered walkway, under which was a whole bunch of puddles.

Isn't it interesting that what makes a place the most dry can also make it the most wet?

Anyways, I was actually on my way to the bookstore. I bought two books with an unused gift card that I got in high school. It's been a while since I've read for fun. I can't believe books cost $7.99 now.

Hmm... and I've always wondered this, but why is the sci-fi & fantasy section always next to the romance section?

new york, new york

So I'm in NY. It's nice here.

There are a lot of people here, and it's unbelievable how many people you can fit in a subway.

Internships are a lot more fun when there are other interns; there are 41 interns here this year, last year I was one of two.

Working at a hedge fund (they prefer to call themselves a finance/tech company, but hedge fund is so much easier to say) has half convinced me that finance is actually cool. In fact, I think I'm going to modify my schedule next semester to include a class on financial investments... don't worry, I'm still very much aspiring to be an engineer :)

My roommate is really nice, and so are my suitemates. Oh and so are all the other interns :)
