A quick catalog of what I did each day of my break:
Day 0 - arrived, showed Dancing Physicist around northwest Portland
Day 1 - visited MLC, Cleveland, hung out with Senor Evergreen
Day 2 - worked on a binder project*, dinner with a client of my stepdad's
Day 3 - saw Lost Rocket, dinner with her family and a new friend of theirs
Day 4 - went and chilled with LS
Day 5 - low key, checked up on some academic stuff, practiced driving
Day 6 - drove south, went to a movie with LS and Senor Evergreen
Day 7 - not much, hung around the house all day
Day 8 - road trip with the family
Day 9 - lunch with Lost Rocket, tea with LS, left a CD for Senor Evergreen
* The binder project: on day 1 Senor Evergreen and I sat in my room and I looked around. I said "wow there's a lot of stuff I'll have to eventually get rid of or take with me." I took down my pile of stuff I've been collecting that serves no purpose but I don't want to get rid of. I used to keep it in my bottom drawer and call it the "memory drawer." We looked at it, and later that night after he left I started putting all that I could in a binder. It seems MLC has successfully indoctrinated me in the Way of the Porfolio - I make portfolios out of everything now!
With respect to my stated spring break projects:
- I'm about halfway through Dune
- I drove around a neighborhood, partway to a friend's house in SE, and to the store and back
- I've requested recommendations and transcripts for my summer internship application
Looks good to me.
