My college experience has been a series of difficulty steps, as each semester had a new type of obstacle to climb.

Like prior posts, the brief nature of this is mainly due to not much needing to be said. Unlike other posts, I want to emphasize what reflection has brought me looking back upon the route up the mountain of life.

I’ve learned to be more grateful for friends, collaborators, and jokers. I see the need to change and grow, and the needs of consistency, self care, and both more and less imagination.

Looking forward is better when applying lessons learned looking back.

I’ve come to learn that saying enough and not too much is a useful skill. And while this post is a response to being short on time, let the message remain despite the context.

We communicate with meanings, along the backs of words. We should let our words speak for themselves.

First steps are hard. From beginnings follow inertia, and then the snowball begins to roll downhill (for a bit, at least).

For better or worse, starting means overcoming the lack of inertia. This is the start, of what I hope to be, a set of monthly posts (no promises). I’m not sure where this will go, but the act of starting should not be overlooked.

Hello.

I’m not quite sure how you found yourself here.

If you can’t tell by the theme of this website, I prefer function over form. Nothing against good looking websites, but everything against websites that are difficult to be a user on.

Like the best laid plans of mice and men, progress may often go awry. This website is still being scaffolded, and I expect things to change; not necessarily fast, more eventually. This page will eventually be edited to reflect how the site has grown (or shrunk).

Ultimately, this website will be part blog (once a month is the current schedule), part storage space for other projects, and hopefully a place to look back on in the future.
