Merge
Tuesday, March 30, 2010
If there was one thing that I would teach the world, it would be how to merge. It seems that so many people do not understand how to safely and at a reasonable speed to merge. I find unlimited frustration with the lack of this ability. While it is not necessarily the easiest thing int he world, it does not require a college education. First and foremost, KEEP MOVING! This is very important for ht sole fact that it inhibits the backup of traffic for miles behind you. Trust yourself and keep moving.
Sincerely,
On the verge of road rage in San Antonio

What I learned this week...
Sunday, March 28, 2010
Each week I feel that there is a new lesson to be learned.
This week was a very humbling week for me. While I am not the type of person to feel that they know it all and could not possibly learn more, I realized how much I need the others around me to learn all that I need. I find it so sad that so many educated people feel the need to show superiority over others not as well educated. I was humbled by the technician that knows so much more than I will learn in the many years to come.
I learned that learning something so new and far removed from what I have ever done is very intimidating. I also learned to swallow that intimidation and move forward to learn the cool things in science.
I learned that friends make life changing moves not so scary. I realized that I am truly lucky by having friends in the new city and being able to connect with them like so many years ago. Time and distance does not necessarily diminish a friendship. This makes me feel better for my many friends all over the country that I would hate to ever lose.
I most importantly learned that one can be completely happy with no home to call their own (staying with friends) and no expensive possessions to keep them entertained (other than this laptop of course but that has become a necessity and not a luxury). :D

What I learned this week...
Saturday, March 20, 2010
This week I learned that there are not enough hours in the day.
I learned that no matter how much coffee I drink after 4 pm, I just cannot think properly.
I learned that no matter how much you want to learn and understand something, innundating yourself does not always work.
I learned that not getting frustrated at my lack of ability to do something does not help me do that something. It only makes me frustrated!
I learned that while wanting to have my space and start my life as I should, I find myself hesitating to make things more permanent.
And most importantly, I learned that people are mostly stupid when it comes to driving on the interstate and I am glad they cannot hear my say all those horrible things to them.
