Ireland Next Week!

So today is my birthday, and next week is Spring Break… probably the last Spring Break of my life. Meanwhile, my friend James “Roger” Losey just got his Masters in Physics, and looks like the paper he was working on with his professor might get published. (Warning: it’s incredibly boring, but wonderfully nerdy). Anyways, the… Continue reading Ireland Next Week!
