I just uploaded the few photos I took the day that Angie and I visited Taliesin West last month, it was the most beautiful day I have ever seen in the valley. I really enjoyed the desert that one day. In other news, I have been building up my online presence this week. I'm not sure why I got the urge but I created a Linkedin account and I updated my Facebook profile and my ASU Directory Profile and Resume.
I love the advances ASU has made online, this week they tweaked the MyASU app a bit, and now I can finally see what classes I took before they had MyASU. Plus the added the ability to check grades and your gpa. That's awesome. The real impressive thing is the Facebook app ASU built. I think it's awesome.

As I got close to finishing high school, I started to want to move to Washington State. I got over that idea for a while, until recently when I decided I wanted to move to Seattle once I finish at ASU. For me to change my plan I would have find a city more likable than Seattle. And next month I will be visiting two cities I have not before in addition to Seattle. I can't wait!

With Borders closing on Mill Ave, Downtown Tempe is losing more of what little it had to offer. While there are many people out there happy to see it go, I am not just yet. It is leaving behind a wake of empty spaces on Mill as it goes. I would love it if Downtown Tempe finally got a grocery store, and what an almost perfect spot. Whole Foods had been opening larger and larger stores in the early 2000's but they realized how these stores underperformed their smaller predecessors and they have recently switched to designing smaller new stores. The space Boarders leaves is 25,000 square feet, the same size as the Whole Foods planned to go in 690 Stanyan in San Fransisco. The only problem I can think of off the top of my head is parking and delivery. Border's loading dock is currently a lot smaller than would be needed for a grocery store. Also there is no ample parking within sight, however there is an empty lot across Seventh St that could be turned into a small parking lot... maybe 40 spaces?
Anyway it's just a shame that Downtown Tempe has lost so much of it's potential and character during my time in the valley.

I have a renewed sense of awe and a restored vision of hope for our country. This is our country and we are each part of something larger than ourselves.
The people who have recently been lured into fearing President-elect Obama, have been listening to hateful and fearful words emanated from the other side of this election. Well the election is over now, and we are one once again. Over the next four years I am sure positives will come out of Obama. Those positives are going to be so much more influential on people than anything said by the McCain or Obama camps during this election.
Thanks to every one that took the time to raise their voices.
We have a lot to look forward to. We have a lot we need to keep caring about.
