Spring Break 2018 Road Trip

Three friends and I did an adventurous road trip recently. The following map is what we had planned but due to a sudden snowstorm around Tahoe, we had to improvise during the last 2 days of our trip.

I wrote a photo blog about this entire trip (with lots of photos). You can check that out here.

Quick Update

During this winter break (Dec 2017 – Jan 2018) I worked on a pet project called ‘BNKS Stories’. I wrote this article on Medium which is a brief explanation of that.

I have been away for the past several months, away in a sense ‘away from side projects, write-ups, photography and other experiments’ — things I usually love doing. I was busy with classes and problem sets and projects instead. It’s very easy to lose yourself into academics. The first week of the year; the first class project; the first guest lecture; the first quarter. Second week, second quarter, more problem sets, more activities. You fall into the pattern, or maybe the pattern gets you. That’s the limbo I was in. I had one shot to get back at writing during the month long vacation in December. But having no deadlines and homework for a while was too important a luxury and I spent my winter break having fun. Things have gotten better lately, and productive. This past quarter I took CS142 and though the class was very basic, it led me into the realms of web applications. This post is going to be all about that. (boring? stop reading…)
