My Cup of Tea

A few of my thoughts from time to time...

Name:
Location: Santa Monica, California, United States

My main focus right now is trying to keep a balance in life. I'm currently working full time and getting a PhD, but I also believe life isn't supposed to be all work and no play. Thus, I keep from going over the edge by escaping to the great outdoors just about every weekend. Activities that keep me sane are: Mountaineering, trail running, backpacking, rock climbing, snowboarding, kayaking, mountain biking, scuba diving. My 3-yr plan: Mont Blanc, Matterhorn, Elbrus, Ushba, Ama Dablam. Recent successes: Denali, the CA 14ers, Rainier, Pico de Orizaba, Ixta, Aconcagua

Fun with the Folks

Wow, it's been a busy month! The semester just started and I go to class about twice a month, all day on Friday and Saturday. Since it's so far from where I live, especially with traffic, I stay over at my parents' place Friday night. It's a bit strange to stay there because of how much my sleeping habits have changed. I used to stay up all night doing nothing, but now sleep has become so valuable to me. I usually go to bed by about 11pm and get up around 6am, giving me nearly 7 hrs of sleep every night. Now, when I visit my parents I get soooo tired because I stay up to talk for hours, finally getting to sleep at about 2am...even though they're still wide awake!! It's kind of fun to say, "All right kids, it's time for me to go to bed. Don't stay up too late now..."
