WRITTEN IN THE NOTES SECTION OF MY PHONE ON A TRAIN HOME FROM NYC ON MONDAY:

“Today I spent a day in New York for the last Monday of my internship. The last three and a half months have been, in a word, lit.

During my train ride into the city I sat across from a couple who clearly still liked each other. He poked her a lot and she lightly tickled his forearm. It really freaked me out. He often stuck his fingers into a newly forming hole in her jeans and smirked sensually at her. She had a phone case that featured a cat floating around in a galaxy and he had a cat button (pin?) on his hipster backpack. I guess they like cats. She was wearing *red* lipstick that was then echoed in her men’s button up t-shirt that she wore, open, over yet another button up shirt. It wasn’t oversized, it was regular sized and I can’t, in good faith, say it was chic. He wore a light gray t-shirt which was *risky* in this 100 degree weather. I stared at them behind my two-tone blue sunglasses so I’m like… pretty sure they could tell. The woman next to them had a fake blue Prada bag :/ the guy next to her was very nice to look at.

I found a pic of the case online...
I bought a pair of sequin boots today I’m sure I’m going to wear everywhere because I am shameless and don’t care what people say about fashion. Mom says I look like David Bowie and she’s not wrong.
​

Finally, I started reading Inferno by Dan Brown and am wondering if there will ever come a book where he does not objectify his female characters. He describes Robert Langdon in each book as “a 6 foot tall professor who wears a Harris tweed jacket” and goes vividly in depth about the slender physique of his female heroines. Relax, man. There’s more to women than their “long, tan legs” — we appreciate you making us scientists or cryptographers but give it a rest.”

Well, kids, there you have it. That’s my update.

LeBron James Opens Public School in Hometown Akron
​NY Times, Reuters

“LeBron James the basketball player has left Ohio. But on Monday morning, the footprint of LeBron James, the philanthropist, got even bigger in his home state.

The I Promise School, started in conjunction with James’s foundation and Akron Public Schools, opened Monday for 240 third- and fourth-grade students. The school will add grade levels each academic year, and by 2022 is expected to educate children in first through eighth grades.”

I sent this to an entrepreneurial friend and he laughed for the rest of the day

​Why Is Coding So Hard? | Part 1
Pat DePuydt, CodeCademy

Coding is like a Foreign Language

There are striking parallels to learning to code and learning a foreign language. I’ve found that students of language, English or otherwise, tend to pick up syntaxes faster.
  • Yes, there are patterns and logic to the systems.
  • Yes, some things are idiosyncratic and can’t be succinctly conveyed in their English equivalent.
  • Yes, there are exceptions to the above 2 points which contradict or don’t make sense, but it’s the way it is so you have to memorize it.

I want to make something clear: I watched the first one and a half seasons of PLL in 3 days and there was no better feeling than deciding "today, on my Saturday, on this beautiful day, I am going to watch a teen drama murder-mystery and never check my phone again." I was GIDDY with contentment.

“Beyoncé in Her Own Words: Her Life, Her Body, Her Heritage”
VOGUE

“I was 218 pounds the day I gave birth to Rumi and Sir. I was swollen from toxemia and had been on bed rest for over a month. My health and my babies’ health were in danger, so I had an emergency C-section. We spent many weeks in the NICU. My husband was a soldier and such a strong support system for me. I am proud to have been a witness to his strength and evolution as a man, a best friend, and a father. I was in survival mode and did not grasp it all until months later. Today I have a connection to any parent who has been through such an experience. After the C-section, my core felt different. It had been major surgery. Some of your organs are shifted temporarily, and in rare cases, removed temporarily during delivery. I am not sure everyone understands that. I needed time to heal, to recover. During my recovery, I gave myself self-love and self-care, and I embraced being curvier. I accepted what my body wanted to be. After six months, I started preparing for Coachella. I became vegan temporarily, gave up coffee, alcohol, and all fruit drinks. But I was patient with myself and enjoyed my fuller curves. My kids and husband did, too.”

Lets back up and talk about my new sequin boots. This is how I picture myself wearing them: in full sparkle during daylight with a look of surprise when someone says something passive aggressive.
