The hit rate has been … Continue reading I finally have time to read…part 2

Hi everyone, Today I woke up and got really absorbed by the internet. I don’t have an early meeting for once and enjoyed sitting at the kitchen table with coffee and oatmeal, reading articles one by one and sharing them friends. Since I can’t do this all day, I decided to share some here (even though this is not a real job). If you’re looking … Continue reading Reading the Internet, November 5
Happy friday readers! Next friday (technically early saturday morning) I am leaving Mexico which is a sentence I can’t believe I just typed. We’re going to have to process that somewhere else. But for now, some reads.

Last year was Philly, the year before was in New York on Julia’s rooftop after drinks at an australian restaurant with really hot waiters. I spent the summer before senior year at Perlman which was the … Continue reading Reading the Internet, Week 5

For those of you who don’t know me, I read a lot of articles on the internet. I don’t like watching videos and I don’t follow many/any tv shows (except I’m definitely going to watch Orange is the New Black) but I cannot resist a good article. I read really long articles on my phone, usually because I don’t realize how long they are and … Continue reading Reading the Internet, Week 1
Some fun internet things: My mom wrote an amazing letter to the editor in the New York Times. We talk about this all the time in my house and I’m so proud of her. Bonus: She wrote this part toot, but it got cut: My daughters (17 and 20) are quite convinced that the NYT has no interest in treating women and men equally in its … Continue reading Quick Links
