Work seems like it gets earlier and later at the same time. I’m finding myself making it to the subway before 6am and waiting a good 10-15 minutes on the train to start running. By the time I make it to work (and usually stop by Starbucks and see if they can get my drink [...]

Friday got off to a rough start when I woke up and realized that I was sleeping through my alarm. I have both a battery-operated alarm and one that plugs into the wall. They are both set for 5:30am and go off within 30 seconds of each other. Long story short, after they went off [...]

I’ve just about gotten used to waking up before 6am and getting to work around 7am. Though sometimes during the day I feel a tad sleepy, I’m making it home at night with plenty of energy. I usually don’t have much of a problem falling to sleep, though, but that’s a good thing.
Today I finished [...]

Even though I worked late today, I took the time right when I got home to head out for a nice hour-long run. Usually when I exercise more, I have trouble sleeping. Given that I am getting to work before 7am, I really hope I don’t have that problem tonight.

Yeah, real work has officially started. Orientation is over and I’m now busy with tasks that my manager and associates give to me. It’s really a nice change though as the lectures were getting a little bit stale. It also feels nice that I’m helping move the research team forward, even if in some very [...]

I just got in from dinner, but I’m in Philadelphia. After work I zipped home, packed some things up, left the apartment, made two subway transfers, and then ran (literally) down East Broadway to catch the Chinatown bus. A block away from the bus, I saw it starting to pull away from the curb so [...]

I decided to be a little bit bad this morning and sleep in an extra 30 minutes past my alarm. I was travelling to a different office location and wasn’t sure if this would be a big mistake. But once out of bed, I hustled and headed to the subway. I left my apartment around [...]

Today was the start of my summer internship here in NYC. I woke up at 6:00am in order to be sure I’d have plenty of time to go through the routine of getting ready, walking to the subway, catching a transfer, and then riding the rest of the way to Wall Street. I think it’s [...]
