veni vidi vici
A dose of daily knowledge @ Saturday, July 18, 2009
Came home early today and dug around for some interesting websites.

I read Passiveaggressivenotes.com and the most notable ones were:
















Among more fun links I frequented for the day were: texts from last night, my very worst date, and overheard in the office.

Then I read my usual round of CNN and NY Times and ran across a game that tests your driving and texting skills. I was surprised how many lanes I missed and how slow I texted back. Luckily, I took off my text plan and utilize speakerphone if I have to.


Lastly, I read up on architect Steven Holl who is amazing by the way. He piqued my interest since he designed the philosophy department of NYU and that's one of my dental school choices! I've passed this building before while on 5th Avenue in NYC but had I known the interior looked like this, I would've gone in! Screw you, Donald Trump Tower and Louis Vuitton. This is way cooler!




One hemisphere over, he also designed the Linked Hybrid in Beijing, which is now complete. As the name suggests, it links 8 giant buildings together.

And just for you, Stan. The Franz Kafka Society Center. Whoever said libraries weren't cool? :)
