Starting my journey of sewing technical gear and bags. So far I am most proud of this basket bag! Anyone else into the MYOG scene?

@moonmehta Fingers crossed for a successful landing this time around! Very impressed by everything ISRO has done so far.

Hey software people, I do lots of coding for my research and I’m having trouble organizing my to-do’s. I’m looking for a program that lets me organize the big topics I need to get done, add subtopics to the main ones, and tag/visualize how they interconnect. Something better than a checklist. Ideas?

Turns out I had two Overleaf accounts for writing in LaTeX - one was with my grad school, the other with my undergrad (which got deleted). Guess which one my CV was on?
Which reminds me, how does ‘em’ even work for document measurements?

It snowed in Texas and everything is shut down, so it’s a good day for coffee and kladdkaka.

My #adayinthelife photo might seem mundane, but research conferences like these drive discussions which further our field. Taken at the Texas APS meeting, Rice University, Houston. 11:00 AM, 10/14/2022.

Finally was able to see a coral reef! Pictured: a Moorish Idol, Christmas Wrasse, Picasso Triggerfish, Saddleback Butterfly, Pocillopora (cauliflower coral), Zoanthid, Convict Tang school, and an Achilles Tang. Best day ever! 🐠🐡🐟

Slowly but surely I’m figuring out Arlington. Today we visited River Legacy Park and took a short hike there. It was hot! No greenery, but a flowing (not frozen) river was weird.

@mejh No limit! The TSA basically just swabs the bottle and sends you on your way. They were all super interested in it and seemed not to worry.

Sooooooo did you know you can fly with a fish on a plane if it’s in a sealed container?

@Alcedine Those are some great shots! I wish my betta would sit still for pictures... he just thinks I'm there to give him food.

Time sure flies! After finishing a mostly uneventful first semester, Tova has decided to join me on the big move back to Texas! After a two day road trip it is time to start a new semester and also a new adventure! Even the fish came along for the ride!

As I get ready to transition my life across the country for grad school, it’s important to stop and reflect on the things that make you happy. Here’s a quick picture of my girlfriend Tova and her dog Otis. I’m going to miss them both.

@Jean I know $5 isn't a lot, but do you have student pricing plans? I'd like to use my blog to document the life of a physics graduate student this upcoming year, but because of that budget is tight.

I’ve decided to bring my houseplants outdoors for the summer to give them some extra light and wind. So far they’re looking far better than they did inside even in a bright window. I can’t believe how green and healthy they look.
