[New Year Resolutions] See Ya 2018, Hello 2019!
Buh-bye 2018! 2018 was a fantastic year for me! Honestly, it really couldn’t have gotten better. Let’s get right into it:
[Review] Avengers: Infinity War
**Spoiler-heavy review!!!** Avengers: Infinity War was one of the most intense movies I’ve seen in a long while! It was a great watch, but despite all the action going on it definitely has its flaws.
[New Year Resolutions] Initiative 2018
“Why do you need to wait for a new year to start working on your goals?” is what I’d often rationalize with for not coming up with new year resolutions. While that’s still fairly true, I’d like to try take advantage of using them as smaller goals, side-tasks if anything, as I’m already constantly workingContinue reading “[New Year Resolutions] Initiative 2018”

The biggest obstacle was never the fear but instead was just finding people who were both interested and had theContinue reading “Starting the New Year by Falling 15,000 Feet”
Into the New Year Shenanigans
In 2014, I scored an engineering internship, graduated with two degrees, and conquered an entire marathon. Pretty good if you ask me. This year makes those previous amazing feats look like nothing. Here’s what happened this year, in chronological order (with lots of Smash, haha): Self-prepared for software interviews and had it all pay offContinue reading “Into the New Year Shenanigans”
Uber Life – Labor Day
I’ve always been against owning my own car if I don’t need it. Meeting people through Uber is one of my strongest reasons to keep this lifestyle going. I spent this past Labor Day weekend in Ontario (California) for a national Smash tournament on Saturday and Sunday, and spent the actual Labor Day in IrvineContinue reading “Uber Life – Labor Day”
