		<description><![CDATA[So we&#8217;re going to skip forward quite a bit in my israel trip to today. I promise to go back and write about the rest of my trip, which was arguably the best part. But now, lets jump to today&#8230; I have 7 days left (by now it&#8217;s more like 6). I generally have very [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everyone speaks hebrew as their primary language here in Israel, and in interacting with people, I&#8217;ve noticed a couple of interesting things about languages. Almost everyone CAN speak english, but it isn&#8217;t their natural language (it&#8217;s kind of like how after only 6 years of studying spanish I CAN speak spanish, but in speaking spanish with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What separates the good from the great? Is it talent, sheer work-ethic, or a mixture of both? I know from experience that you can&#8217;t achieve greatness just through work-ethic; I used to spend countless hours training so that I&#8217;d be a &#8220;great&#8221; soccer player, and I&#8217;d say I never made it past the &#8220;good&#8221; stage.

		<description><![CDATA[After a grueling two and a half weeks of non-stop studying, I&#8217;m finally done with my final exams and with that, fall 2007 semester seamlessly comes to a close. In retrospect, this semester was probably the best of my college times in almost every respect. The semester really flew by; I still have vivid images [...]]]></description>

The header image is some fractal from wikimedia commons (I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;m supposed to use it without giving rights so&#8230; Thank you Jonathan Zander.)

It&#8217;s time to learn everything all us college students were supposed to learn during the semester but never did. I have tons of studying that I need to do, yet [...]]]></description>

Summer was really awesome, and for the first time in my life, I&#8217;m actually content enough with my summer to look forward to classes starting. These last couple of months have been jam packed with stuff for me to do; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just finished my summer internship at Tellme yesterday, and it was an amazing experience. Not only did I have a really fun time working there, but I definitely learned a lot and I also got to see the infrastructure of a moderately sized company. I was a applications developer intern, so I ended up [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Summer&#8217;s a great time to do all the things you&#8217;ve been wanting to do, but haven&#8217;t found time to do during the year. In my case, one of those things was regular, high-intensity exercise. Coming into the summer, I did what I do every year: I said I would devote my summer to serious exercise [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When most people (at least many college students) think of time management, they think of procrastination, of wasted time, and of all the tasks that could have and should have finished. It&#8217;s not uncommon for people to put things off for tomorrow (i.e. put them off until the deadline) because there is some more pressing [...]]]></description>
