I was just there as well (for a whirlwind 22 hours, which left little time for nostalgia). I managed to convince my coworker that Tosci's was what we should do with our 2 hours of downtime, so I got my fix of ginger snap molasses ice cream. It was fun, and I missed you terribly. It makes me oddly happy to know you were reliving your (and our) memories there at about the same time.Working Glass Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14402149639574729670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83051264720804256.post-87152035441103044662009-09-30T15:35:21.473-07:002009-09-30T15:35:21.473-07:00Three weeks ago actually.

I know time goes faster as we get older, but not that fast and neither of us is that old yet.<br />I liked the MIT pics in your blog, so I thought I would drop links to a couple of older ones I had been working on lately. A concise way of telling you a little bit more about myself actually - you can see when I was there and what dorms I lived in while I was there. Visual mnemonics, kilowords, and all that.Barryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15601407170512828091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83051264720804256.post-43214884950840468752009-09-30T12:29:12.816-07:002009-09-30T12:29:12.816-07:00Barry - Now I remember.

That was the first thing I noticed. <br /><br />No, I didn't actually have Woodie as my prof. I took it during Prof. West's tenure of the class. The ONLY regret about my minoring in Japanese was the fact that it messed up my 2.70 lab time. It was still an awesome experience though. I was covered by Japanese television - and did very well until my trigger broke. <br /><br />I started wearing my rat again a little while ago. I've actually met alum by wearing it. I noticed that your ring is similar to the other one I wear (not my wedding ring).MIT Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08793376511596741906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83051264720804256.post-21115815024863409192009-09-29T13:07:11.022-07:002009-09-29T13:07:11.022-07:00Ah yes, the obligatory photo of both of us is stil...Ah yes, the obligatory photo of both of us is still on my camera...

Congrats on meeting your first blogger in real life. You forgot to add the obligatory photo of the both of you. LOL.<br /><br />I went to a Catholic college in the midwest filled with Irish kids. My freshmen dorm was called "The Beercan" and our most famous alum was Chris Farley.OHmommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12712111068636100187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83051264720804256.post-62812734062665777462009-09-28T22:11:46.018-07:002009-09-28T22:11:46.018-07:00It was awesome to meet you and write on the walls!...It was awesome to meet you and write on the walls! And you're so timely with your post :). <br /><br />My freshman room was 222 and I went through course 6, 8 and 4 before settling on course 2 (at least they were all even). And I believe they retired the number for building 20 (MIT can be numerical and nostalgic at the same time), and built the strange building 32 on top of it. <br /><br />Despite being firmly course 2, I dropped out of 2.70 the first time around and took it again with fervor. I think that contraption is sitting in my attic somewhere... Did you have Woodie? Alas, professors are not numbers but sometimes first names!! <br /><br />I loved that you wore your brass rat, I hardly ever take mine out. Have we completely confused your audience? I love that we can speak in code!Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09384193725703209859noreply@blogger.com
