The Latest Addiction

Can I just say, trading is truly fun stuff. Monitoring markets and making moves in response to the state of the market, information and certain intuitions gives me a kick like no other, for now. Now, if only I had access to the 64,510 dollars required to buy a single lot of crude.

Swing of Things

Given that I've been here for 3 months now, I'd like to believe that life has fallen into a comfortable rhythm. The truth of the matter however, is that it has not. Certainly, one never gets used to retching one's guts out on a regular basis. Got to watch the drinking. 16 shots a night is not good for one's dignity, finances or liver.

Happy Halloween everyone!

When I Should Be Studying for Astronomy.

Muchly excited am I.

To shiny chairs and tables, green placemats, sparkling silverware.

To pellegrino after squash and reserving and buying cupcakes every friday night in hope of talking to someone.

To strolling past on saturday afternoons.

To hanging out with friends after we all took turns to leave the military and everytime someone flew back.

Goodbye.

Fall

Say hello to Fall.

Cabin in the Woods

At the invitation of Mrs Thomas and Lynn, we headed down to this charming cabin down in the woods of Brown County over last weekend. With an amazing home-cooked lunch that came in the form of lasagna, roast beef, potato gratin and freshly-baked buns waiting for us when we arrived, this had to be the best meal I've had in the longest time(subjectively- in light of the crappy life of a college student in the midwest.)



















The countryside here is strangely alluring. While pastoral landscapes never fail tom calm one's nerves, the woods and the occasional gunshots are strangely... appealing.
