Connected!

Internet connection at home set up! Yo! I feel whole again. It's been painful these last few days without a solid, good, quick connection within waking's reach. Now I no longer need to spend hours at the office past midnight just so I can look up favourite websites, chat with family and friends, play online games, and sometimes do my research...I can do it all comfortably at home now! Yippee.

Speaking of, I should be getting to the office. I don't get paid to wait at home for the cable guy to come install high speed online!

Unfortunately for me, the weather is bad so I probably can't go hiking, and then my boss told me Thursday that we have work to do over the weekend. Right now I am busy testing the microwave/rf generators for our quantum dot gate pulsing. We need to make sure that we can maintain the pulse form sent down to the sample with minimal distortion, reflection, attenuation and loss. This is made particularly difficult due to the size of our metal gates (which I made), on the order of 100 nm or less in width and less than 20 nm in thickness. S...

It's been a few years, and how things have changed. Or have they? I wrote this email shortly after the events of September 11, 2001 to family and a few friends. I thought I'd put it up here, I'm not sure why now, but it just felt like something I'd like to do (it seems I forgot to capitalize letters or even put in apostrophes back then). Sept 11 2001 our lives will never be the same. yesterday we witnessed the destruction of two american symbols of power: our military might and economic prowess. i woke up early yesterday, expecting to continue the routine of going to classes and such, happy that i had begun the day so early and hoping to accomplish much. i headed for pupin at around 940 to talk to a prof about taking a graduate level class, cheerful and optimistic knowing that i would be challenging myself with the courses i chose this semester. i finally realized something was wrong when i reached his office and saw him looking out the window, the sky covered wi...
