Unaccustomed Earth: May 2009
http://viebordelaise.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 31, 2009. So, dear readers, I leave Tuesday morning on a 5 AM train to Paris, but this is not goodbye. Tuesday, May 26, 2009. Photo Survey, Bordeaux Edition. Tiff sent me this amazing meme because she knew I couldn't resist doing it. Considering that this blog is "study abroad" themed, I'm going to try to confine all the photos to ones taken in Bordeaux. I added captions and explanations, which perhaps defeats the purpose, but nostalgia is making me verbose. Here goes:. Not my birthday, but A...

Unaccustomed Earth: Mad Men recaps
http://viebordelaise.blogspot.com/2010/09/suitcase-mad-men-tv-club-tv-av-club.html
Tuesday, September 7, 2010. The Suitcase" Mad Men TV Club TV The A.V. Club. And you, too, will head off into the unknown.". Mad Men recaps are the best part of my Mondays. The A.V. Club's is usually very good; Slant Magazine's blog The House Next Door. Also puts out a good one, but usually a little later in the week. NYMag's is a crapshoot; this week it was just crap. I couldn't help myself and skimmed it before I had seen the episode and freaked out when I read the commentary (SPOILER ALERT! The cherry ...

Denise types things here sometimes. An American in Liege. Mazza First Hand Source. Overheard in New York. I was riding the uptown 6 train recently, and the car was pretty empty when I got on. I sat down on a subway bench while the train waited in the station, and a few moments later a guy boarded the train and sat across from me. This would be a pretty unremarkable event, except that he was grinning from ear to ear. Maybe that funny Nick Kroll ad about dog plastic surgery is right over my head? Anyway, a...

Denise types things here sometimes. An American in Liege. Mazza First Hand Source. Overheard in New York. Wow job, such struggle. I guess my purpose in writing about this now is that in the event that you’re a hiring manager reading this, or in case I am one day in the position to hire someone, I would implore you, and Future Me, please don’t keep inviting people back for interviews if there is an unchangeable circumstance about their employability. What if I had pushed harder for Y? January 31, 2015.

Denise types things here sometimes. An American in Liege. Mazza First Hand Source. Overheard in New York. Makers Academy: Week 1. For twelve weeks, I will be taking an intensive web developing and coding course at Makers Academy. For those who are unfamiliar, Makers Academy is one of many popular “tech boot camps” springing up all over the world. In large part this is a response to the fact that technology is one of the fastest-growing. I was hoping that feeling would go away as soon as classes started&#...

Makers Academy: Week 3 Mid-week Update | epicuriosity
https://deniseyu.wordpress.com/2014/10/02/makers-academy-week-3-mid-week-update
Denise types things here sometimes. An American in Liege. Mazza First Hand Source. Overheard in New York. Makers Academy: Week 3 Mid-week Update. Since I felt like I didn’t have a deep understanding of how certain game mechanics worked, I decided to invest part of my week building a simple browser-based game just to teach myself how to stitch together the front and back ends. So far, this is what I have, thanks to a lot of help from senior Makers:. Http:/ young-bayou-4999.herokuapp.com/. October 2, 2014.

Denise types things here sometimes. An American in Liege. Mazza First Hand Source. Overheard in New York. 12 hours, 26 pubs, victory, death, sleep forever. The pub is a curious institution in England. It’s an extension of the living room — a communal space that is multipurposeful in a way that bars in the US are not. Business meeting? Post-ultimate frisbee practice socializing? Done with classes for the afternoon? Head to the pub. Our numbers grew as more people finally woke up and caught up to us on the...

Denise types things here sometimes. An American in Liege. Mazza First Hand Source. Overheard in New York. Obscure Halloween Costume Ideas. In an effort to procrastinate this midterm, here are some ideas in case you are at a deficit of creative energy (will be edited throughout this evening):. The Iranian Constitution from 1905-1921: Wear a giant sweater and pull on a thread, causing it to unravel over the course of the evening. Brendan Fradkin playing Werewolf: Communicate strictly using Internet memes.
