Sleep is so important for health of the mind and body. When I don’t get enough sleep (8-9 hours), my head spins in the morning and my body is weakened. My immune system gets depleted and I am susceptible to colds. A textbook example of this was this past weekend. I had not been getting…
10 reasons why nightclubs can suck
Once in awhile clubs are fun – most times they are not. Here are some reasons why they suck on so many occaisons. Inadequate or unsanitary restroom facilities: lines and mess = really lame Crappy music: really kills the energy Expensive cover: I’d rather spend it on climbing or skiing Expensive drinks: there is no…
Friday I’m In Love
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…
Too many boys in China
I feel bad for Chinese men. Check out this video from CNN.com: (Video: China: Too many boys?). The country is running out of girls. In fact, in the urban areas, for every 118 boys, there are only 100 girls. In rural areas, there are 130 boys for every 100 girls! By 2020, the government predicts…
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…
