It has been another week and time for me to give an update on my [[eye experiment]]. Unfortunately, I am disappointed to report that I have not been able to keep up with it. In a hectic schedule, one hour per day on a regular basis is harder than I’d thought it would be. This [...]

“Don’t Criticize, Condemn, or Complain” – This is the central piece of advice given in How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. I remember reading this last year and thinking, “Sounds like good advice. How hard can that be?” Alas, actually doing this is much harder than it seems. I take this [...]

Here are some observations from my first week of conducting my eye experiment. For an hour a day, I would cover my left eye and read a few articles online with my right eye, with the font increased 4 levels at about 20-30 centimeters from the screen. I would try to focus my eye on [...]

7:56. A train pulls into the station in front of me, right on schedule. As I stepped through the door, I wondered, “How on earth do trains and buses arrive at their destination within +/- a few minutes of the indicated time?” It seems like a pretty unlikely event – there are just so many [...]

On the train ride home today, I thought about a lesson the girl who I’m in love with has taught me. In the beginning of our relationship, I had gotten mad at her for seemingly not being open. I’d divulged some of my most embarrassing secrets, and felt that she had not responded in kind. [...]

Two days ago, in A Sprained Foot Leads To Some Interesting Observations, my foot had suddenly felt sprained during the day. That really took me by surprise because I’d walked into my office feeling just fine. It was a gradual increase from a little bit of pain to so much pain that I couldn’t really [...]

Two days ago, I decided to go on my regular run of approximately 5-6 miles. Since I had hurt my hip previously and the leg guy (my fancy term for person who knows about legs and stuff) in the opera I just performed had told me that it was because I was running on cement [...]
