Northern Belle: September 2010
http://northernbelle-net.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
The life and opinions of a Computer Science PhD student who was raised in Virginia but followed the internal urge to move to Massachusetts. Thursday, September 30, 2010. Thriving in a multidisciplinary world: technical and communication skills are key. We got to learn how to say good morning in Portuguese to start off the talk on Managing Scientific Data in a Multidisciplinary world by Claudia Bauzer Medeiros. Halfway through we also had a Tolkien reference! Posted by M. O. At 9/30/2010 10:38:00 AM.

Northern Belle: January 2010
http://northernbelle-net.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
The life and opinions of a Computer Science PhD student who was raised in Virginia but followed the internal urge to move to Massachusetts. Sunday, January 03, 2010. I experienced my very first white Christmas this year! A week before Christmas a blizzard hit the east coast, including central Virginia. My parents' house had about a foot and a half of snow by the end of the storm. The last time I can remember us having that much snow there was over ten years ago, I think it might have been 1996?

Northern Belle: I'm Back!
http://northernbelle-net.blogspot.com/2010/09/im-back.html
The life and opinions of a Computer Science PhD student who was raised in Virginia but followed the internal urge to move to Massachusetts. Monday, September 13, 2010. Well, after a not-so-short hiatus from the Blogger world, I'm back! I decided I needed to take some time away from the blog to work on another time sensitive one, whose time has now passed. I'm looking forward to getting back to chronicling my graduate school adventures, as I am hoping I will graduate within the next year! A Little Q and A.

Northern Belle: GHC is just around the corner!
http://northernbelle-net.blogspot.com/2010/09/ghc-is-just-around-corner.html
The life and opinions of a Computer Science PhD student who was raised in Virginia but followed the internal urge to move to Massachusetts. Saturday, September 18, 2010. GHC is just around the corner! Well, I'm definitely getting psyched about this year's Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing (GHC). I'm on a panel called "Building Bridges and Breaking Barriers: Panel on Diversity and Inclusion in CS Education," and I'm presenting some of my dissertation research in the PhD Forum! They are defini...

Northern Belle: Grace Hopper was also a funny lady
http://northernbelle-net.blogspot.com/2010/09/grace-hopper-was-also-funny-lady.html
The life and opinions of a Computer Science PhD student who was raised in Virginia but followed the internal urge to move to Massachusetts. Tuesday, September 28, 2010. Grace Hopper was also a funny lady. Last week there was a lot of tweeting, e-mailing, and Facebooking (is that a verb? Since she is the namesake of the conference starting today, it seems only fitting to share the video with anyone who hasn't had the chance to watch it yet. Enjoy, and see you at the conference!

Northern Belle: August 2009
http://northernbelle-net.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
The life and opinions of a Computer Science PhD student who was raised in Virginia but followed the internal urge to move to Massachusetts. Monday, August 03, 2009. Working at a cafe. I have to say that one of my favorite places to work is at a cafe in town. I'm actually there right now, so since I'm blogging it probably will not be too convincing to say that I get a lot of work done here; but I do! The pot of tea makes everything better, not to mention you can actually get natural light. Contrary to wha...

Northern Belle: Imposter Panel: do YOU belong?
http://northernbelle-net.blogspot.com/2010/10/imposter-panel-do-you-belong.html
The life and opinions of a Computer Science PhD student who was raised in Virginia but followed the internal urge to move to Massachusetts. Friday, October 01, 2010. Imposter Panel: do YOU belong? Every year at GHC there is a panel called the Imposter Panel. I remember when I first came in 2006 it was in a medium sized room, and everyone crammed into the talk, stood in the hall, and not everyone could participate. It was so popular! Definitely a recurring point here at GHC, and worth the repetition!

Northern Belle: December 2009
http://northernbelle-net.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
The life and opinions of a Computer Science PhD student who was raised in Virginia but followed the internal urge to move to Massachusetts. Monday, December 14, 2009. The next week is going to be really busy, but what else is new? The rest of December will be spent on visiting family, planning my wedding, and working on research. I'm really quite OK with that, and I'm looking forward to getting it all done so I can move on to the next to-do list! Posted by M. O. At 12/14/2009 05:21:00 PM. A Little Q and A.
