I just finished an 8 week Mindfulness Meditation seminar. This blog post is also available on Medium:. I just finished an 8 week Mindfulness Meditation seminar. My favorite iPhone apps Part I: Productivity. In January 2014 I got my first serious smartphone, an iPhone. My previous phone was running Android, but the device itself was so low-end that I couldn't do much with it. Not only that, but I also didn't have a data plan! I was relying on wi-fi, which made having that smartphone even less useful.

Trip back to childhood: the Ithaca Sciencenter. I spent last Sunday afternoon at the Ithaca Sciencenter. Stephanie, who volunteers there, had told me so much about it. So naturally, I wanted to check it out. To make a long story short, it was fantastic! I wish I had been exposed to something similar when I was growing up! Here's what I saw. My adventure began at the animal room. (You can click on the images below to view larger versions.). My personal favorite, Axolotls! Next up, magnets! I'm skipping a ...

My first week at a $22 standing desk. I always wanted to try a standing desk. But they are so expensive. I published a thorough review of my standing desk experience on Medium:. To stand, or not to stand. So I settled for the DIY version. I did not build the original $22 standing desk. Because there is no IKEA anywhere near Ithaca, NY! Instead, this is how I went about it:. Side table from TARGET (bought when I first moved to the US). And two shelf brackets. From Lowes (thanks Ben. As you can tell, I am ...
