This was an un-exciting week except for yesterday, when I went to Mahoney's with my sister Isi and her girlfriend Sym, who are both living with us, to get plants for the vegetable garden. This article by comparative immunologist and bio professor Erin Bromage about the relative risk of infection in different situations was useful …
COVID-19 Self-Quarantine Photos, Week 4
We've been doing this for a month now, apparently. I find myself overly stressed about the few obligations I still have, even though they're all no big deal. I bet a lot of you feel the same. We're all in crisis mode to some extent, and our bodies don't know how to differentiate between stressors …
Tufts Spring Illumination Ceremony 2018
Tufts has a tradition called the illumination ceremony. Everyone gets an unlit candle, one chosen person lights theirs and touches candles with another person, and that person passes the flame on until everyone's candle is lit.

PNDP – Sports
Here’s PNDP assignment #5: to go to a Wonderland youth sports game and try to tell the story of it through photos. Also, to write a poem about it. I chose the Medford High School JV soccer team, photographed a game in disgusting rain, and wrote a poem inspired by this video. Even though The …
PNDP – Dawn at Mystic Ave, Medford
Here are some photos from week 2 of PNDP. The assignment was to shoot dawn and write six sentences about it. Of course, it rained all week, so everyone's dawn pictures were pretty dingy. At six in the morning, the sky is just barely beginning to lighten to a pearly gray, but work has already …
