Another week in the books. Things are getting busy around here! I am making some progress on my research project on the growth of CleanTech Venture Capital in China. I have compiled a list of VC firms that are either currenlty investing in China or are focused on CleanTech/energy. My goal is to interview a…

Movie Night
The Law and Business Society had the second installment of dinner and movie night. We watched Boiler Room and the people who came seemed to enjoy the movie and the tasty Thai food. Overall, I think it was a success. We ordered the Thai food from Thaiphoon restaurant in Palo Alto and I highly recommend…
Sunny Cali
A beautiful day today in Palo Alto. It really doesn’t feel like January when its 60+ degrees outside and sunny! I’m not used to wearing shorts and a t-shirt in the middle of the winter. I took advantage and went on a r un outdoors. The great weather is forecasted to persist through the weekend….
Busy Week
I got a busy week ahead – things just add up. The main thing of interest is the Law and Business Society movie night on Thursday at 6:30 pm. Hopefully the food ordering process will be smoother this time. We plan on Thai food – Pad Thai baby! I’ve also got some extra class sessions…
Weekend
The weekend has been mostly chill with lots of time doing nothing (i.e. music listening and web surfing). I need to hit the reading hard on Sunday. On Saturday night I saw Snakes On A Plane on DVD. It was decent for its entertainment and group-watching value and that was about it. It served its…
Ridiculous!
Check out this article about a parent complaining about the showing of “An Inconvenient Truth” in science class. It’s one of those reads where I just shake my head, and the fact that it’s in Seattle suburb (my hometown area) makes it even more unbelievable to me. “An Inconvenient Truth” should be shown in every…
Slow one
Nothing really new to report today. I woke up earlier than I would have liked in order to work on a group assignment and the effects of it lasted throughout the day. Tomorrow I’ve got Venture Capital bright and early at 8 am so I should probably head to bed relatively soon. Exercise: Lifted at…
Proposal
My research proposal for Venture Capital got a shaky reception today. Apparently the topic was too easy. I’ll think about modifying it to make it more “groundbreaking,” however not at the expense of the topic area itself, because I really like it. Yes, I don’t know Chinese and I don’t know the science behind the…
Weekend Round-up
Well, the Superbowl is set for the Colts to face the Bears. Both the teams I favored to win today lost, but I have now morphed into a Colts fan. I’d like to see Peyton Manning, Marvin Harrison, and Co. win a Superbowl. The Colts have been good since I was a sophomore in High…
Costco!!
The highlight today was going to Costco – one of my favorite stores. I look forward to going to Costco like I do for a vacation! Let’s just say my food rations are set for a couple weeks. Today’s run was better than I expected. After the miserable outing on Monday, I wasn’t keeping my…
