I have been a tad lazy and had not posted in a while. But I have been thinking. Reading blogs online has made me realize that this medium can also serve as a way to let out your ego. I have always been afraid of my evil-dormant ego inside my little head.
When I started the blog, I saw it as a way to share my experiences (a have record) of learning physics at an upper level (on my way to a Ph.D.). So I intended to write about topics that I learned and ideas that occur to me. I do not want to start ranting about other scientist or theories. Maybe I will do that some other way.
Looking forward to graduate school!

Graduation!
Yesterday was the 92nd graduation ceremony of UPR- Mayagüez. I shared the Enrico Fermi prize with my young friend Luis B. Arroyo. Also I finished my B.S. with a Magna Cum Laude award.
I was happy. Not that excited, but happy. I just know that the best is still to come in

Blogs
I have not posted much lately. I should have been. Instead I've been reading other physics blogs. Some of this blogs are dudes arguing about theories. They also post news and comments on recent topics.
My personal favorite is the Lubos Motl and Peter Woit duo. They have a nice discussion. Peter Woit is a professor at Columbia University how is famous for his criticism to string theory. Lubos is the opposite of Petes, he is also a professor at Harvard.
Other blogs I have been reading included Cosmic Variance. You can get a pretty good idea of what is going on in theoretical physics right now (or for the past 2-3 years) by checking this blogs.

Free time...
Now that I am over with classes and moving things from my apartment back to my house, I am enjoying some real free time. Feels kind of weird, but good. I have decided to continue working on an old mission. When my Intro. to Relativity course was over, the professor asked me and other students to type the notes of the class in a nice LaTeX file. So I will be working on that until I fly to Stanford University for a refreshing summer internship at SLAC.
