There have been problems I’ve been too afraid or too lazy to address for months, if not years. All sorts of problems: school problems, finance problems, friendship problems, and family problems just to list a fraction of them.

Changes
By Isaac in Personal LifeJust finished my programming assignment early for once (lol… 4:18 AM is apparently early) and lots of things have been on my mind, so I guess I’ll blog about it. I apologize for the emotional post yesterday since I know it’s such an abrupt tone difference when you compare it to the other posts, especially [...]

A Fresh Start
By Isaac in Personal LifeI’m writing this post just to say that this marks a fresh start for me and that I’m finally going to realize reality and take control of my life. I’m going to stop thinking about how I’m failing and hopeless in school. I’m going to stop thinking about the opportunity I lost to be with [...]

I have to say that I’ve learned a lot, not only in the sense of reading books, sitting in classes, etc., but also in regards to personal identity and interpersonal relationship development. Reflecting back on the school year, I have [...]

Plans
By Isaac in Personal LifeI know the blog has been boring so I was thinking about a few ways I could spruce it up. One way would be to actually have pictures… and not just pictures I find off the internet, but actual pictures I take with a camera! (ZOMG!) Having pictures would be one way I think posts [...]

Start of Spring Quarter 2011
By Isaac in Personal LifeFinally I’ve reached the last quarter of my first year at UCSC. After a week straight of just partying, I’m ready to get working… and I mean it this time. Last quarter I didn’t do as well as I would’ve liked, so now I’m going to try to take school seriously. This quarter I plan [...]

Presidents’ Day Weekend
By Isaac in Personal LifeThis weekend has been really productive for me. Since we have a 3-day weekend because of Presidents’ Day and most of my friends went down to southern California, I got a lot of work done (including the content pages to this site which you should check out). Unfortunately, none of it was school work. A [...]

Website Update and New Client
By Isaac in Personal LifeI’ve updated the CSS stylesheet a bit so now lists, images, blockquotes, and distinguished text areas are now styled. Also, I decided to decrease the black transparency of the entire site so the text could be easier to read on the white part of the background. (You can see some of these changes in the [...]
