First Post

I think its all the research reports I've had to write in the last couple of years, but I feel that I should begin this blog by outlining its purpose. Initially, I was just going to make a blog to let people know what I was doing while I live and study here on Long Island. However, I will likely be spending the vast majority of my time just going to classes and doing research... not terribly interesting things to read (and write) about every week. Therefore, I will probably write about a wider range of topics than just my own life. For example, if I see an interesting movie or find a really good chili recipe look for a post about it here. Of course, I will also post pictures and updates about what I am actually doing, I just won't do that exclusively.
