It’s been a long haul, but I’m done with Probabilistic Robotics, the beginning of my reading spree until the end of my time here at Columbia. If you don’t remember, I decided I should start a reading spree until I didn’t have access to the huge library at Columbia: hell, all that money has to be paying for something. But the fact that I said that back in October, and only now finished the first book says something about… something.

So.
My first phone interview.
Didn’t crash and burn, didn’t do fantastically well either.
Just so-so.
One thing that got me thinking, though, is my off-the-cuff response to “tell me about an interesting project you’ve worked on recently”, to which I launched into a brief, somewhat tangled exposition on the Reprap project. Even as I was doing so, my inner critic was screaming “WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU’RE TALKING TO A SOFTWARE COMPANY.

School starts next week, so I figured I better get my thoughts into bits before everything unravels and I start to curse my life for no good reason.
First, Sparkfun’s free day was yesterday! Unlike yester-year, I got $10 out of the melee, taking the loyalty money and just running for the exits. It amazes me that I’ve only been really been trying to get my geek on in the last few years (I thought I had more loyalty money), when it feels like it’s been so much longer.

Or books! I could have the top three books I was reading on me at all times, and just pull one out anywhere! I'll never have to waste another minute of my life! What do you say, Professor McGonagall? - Harry Potter in HPMOR
Now, I love the idea of e-ink ebook readers. Truly dearly love them, more than I love books, mostly because books take up space: too much space for my tastes.

Too late for an End of Year Review now. Oh well, it’s not like I had much to say anyways (At least, stuff that I haven’t already said or won’t say at some point in time).
I whipped up an animation in too many weeks, tis on my youtube.
Now… time to apply to internships!
I swear I’ll be back in blogging shape soon. Until then… ta ta!
