Hello, 2009!

Although I had wanted to start a blog for years ago, I never seemed to have been able to find the time. While I have recorded more important events in my journal, memories from events that did not make the journal have slowly drifted away. A few weeks ago, I dug out some old diary entries I had written in elementary school. Rediscovering what I considered strange, amusing, and significant before gives me perspective, perspective for which I will have even greater appreciation later on. Hopefully, short entries every few days will not prove to be too daunting. So here we go, a new blog for the new year!

I love New Year's resolutions and usually make about 20 each January. A few simple ones:

- Figure out my academic path at Princeton.
- Stay in touch with friends I do not see often.
- Take better care of myself: Sleep and sleep more, gym every other day, minimize chicken tender consumption, etc.
- Make time to write and keep up with my journaling.
- Read one good non-course book a month.
