MacBook Pro

June 29, 2007

Okay, I got my MacBook from school over a month ago, but I haven’t written anything about it because I wanted to see if I could get used to it, get a feel for it. I don’t want to make any rash or uninformed comments.
Firstly, I have to admit that this Mac looks freakin’ cool. [...]

Time out

June 28, 2007

A little break from TY and UCLA.
You know, I decided not to teach this summer. I could always use the money–especially with a 26 year-old step-son who still can’t figure out what to do with his life, so he quits his job, moves out of his current living arrangement and comes from Japan for some [...]
