It’s Latin for optimal awesomeness, and it
describes what I’d like to do in college and beyond.
As mentioned on my “About” page, I want to go to MIT. Not mentioned in my about page (until now, just updated) is that I also want to work at Google.

Yes, I’m late, but I really do think sometimes (the
horror!) and I couldn’t find a better topic for my post today.

So, I just went to see Live Free or Die Hard and
I loved it. It’s over-the-top, violent, sarcastic, and funny! It’s got a great script, engrossing story, and interesting plot twists. I loved it so much, I found myself doing Parkour (which was featured in the movie) to get to and from the crapper [...]
