Aeropress Favorite Methods – Tim Wendelboe

I found this little gem in a Wired piece reviewing some of the best (coffee) brewing methods. And…Aeropress is amongst the cream of the crop (if not THE best). I absolutely love my Aeropressed coffee – it’s great every single time, and I especially love handgrinding my own beans right before hand – something about […]

Stopping Gay Marriage Isn’t About Religion – It’s About Insurance

From one of my good friends on Facebook, comes a very interesting insight (emphasis mine): Gay marriage has become a really hot topic recently because of the supreme court activity, and it got me thinking a little more about it. Recently, an old classmate posted an article with one of the only LEGITIMATE arguments against […]

Even If We’re Miles Away..

Even If We're Miles Away..

I’ll think about you everyday
And send you all my love
Every which way

From the East to the West
I know you’re the best
How I got so lucky, I’m not so sure
I just know that I’m oh so blessed

So my dear Jen, time and again
I hope to bring you a smile
That will last quite a while
All the way down our wedding aisle

But until then
Even if we’re miles away
I’ll always love you
Every single day

Some turd, identifying himself as “Jimmy”, commented on last night’s post: “Your bio makes you look ridiculous. It might impress your peers, but for the competent, it’s just total bullshit. Your education is a waste of time and money because you lack focus.” First off, I’m going to refer back to MG for this one […]

End of Interviews – Round 1

After an eventful morning filled with rude customer service from the TSA/Dunkin Donuts/taxi, I’ve landed in the snowy city of Minneapolis, and finally have some time to reflect back on my visit to Harvard’s Systems Biology program and the interview process. Friday was the interview day, and it was an engaging day. I’m tempted to […]

Home Is Where The Science Is

Flying into Boston, it didn’t become reality until I took out the nametag from my Harvard-emblazoned bag that read: “Robert Amezquita. Univ of California San Diego. Systems Biology PhD Candidate.” What an honor. Experiencing the cool, crisp air of the East Coast, feeling snow on the ground, and seeing the red brick symbolic of our […]
