Berkeley, Saturday, September 1, 2018 11:34 PM I will not extend in this blog, as I need to go to sleep in about 16 minutes. A question for what to write, would be about my experiences, reactions, feelings, schedule; or should I post a topic and link then talk about my experiences on it? I […]
Post day description. Thinking on writing tone and content of next posts, and perhaps steps, while I wrote it.
Berkeley, Saturday September 1, 2018. 00:28 AM I passed by few minutes Friday, but this post corresponds to Friday, August 31, 2018. A year more of life, and I am thankful for it. I was born on Sunday, August 31, 1986 at 2:00 AM, in Cuenca, Ecuador. I will separate a year summary, and adding […]
Target oriented day. Difficulties were more time related rather than content. The academic challenges were fulfilled.
Berkeley, Thursday August 30, 2018 8:59 PM What a day! (I am exclaiming. I am not asking, or should I use a question mark?) It was a good day. However, it is time to sleep not. I consumed my energy for day already. I have a class at 6:30 PM, which is a more discussion […]
Showing up for the social events from friends? Yes, often should be a priority.
Berkeley, Wednesday, August 29, 2018 10:47 PM I face multiple decisions over a day, and receive a large amount of e-mails, sometimes invitations, plus extra challenges on which I commit. Today, I hosted Professor Radke, an expert on spatial analysis, on my colloquium. I assigned to the participants a reading of 17 pages on the […]
Multidimensions: It is a need to be present in social media, but being active in them could be actually good, and not distractive. Will see.
Berkeley, Tuesday August 28, 2018 10:40 PM I am writing this essay, late while a bit tired. I am at I-House Cafe, sharing a 2 person table, with my Public Policy student friend, Hannibal. The music is very loud here at the Cafe, but still will try to do my best to finish this on […]
Some experiences; actually, each time more daily experiences described over a chunk of time
Berkeley, Monday August 27, 2018 9:35 PM Starting the second week of the Fall semester. The following topics that this post I will cover today in this post: Discipline / schedule. Short meal save time and weight as well. Stay active by working, writing, making calculations, reading, summarizing, and the brain activates over the day […]
Vim, tennis, not good sleep, or what took away my energy from Saturday to Sunday morning?
Berkeley, Sunday August 26, 2018 11:40 PM Before the day ends, I must fulfill my daily writing challenge. Soon, I will split my research webpage and my personal blog on two pages. I founded SOWAMAR last year, on October 26, 2017. The story behind is beautiful, while Sowamar means Soil and Water Management Research. There […]
Dams and reduction of water storage capacity
Excerpt from the description of a colloquium that I am organizing on Water Infrastructure: There are 59,000 dams in the world; 1,400 in the state of California alone. While these dams provide fundamental services, such as irrigation (36% of the dams), hydropower (17%), water supply (15%), flood control (13%), recreation (8%), and the remaining part […]
Back to tennis and a quick overview on my sports history
Berkeley, Saturday August 25, 2018 5:47 PM Today, I went back to the tennis courts after 24 days of stop. Since the beginning of Spring 2018, I have been playing tennis quite consistently once or twice per week. My stop was because I went to the woods, at Sagehen Creek Research Field Station, for 7 […]
Figuring out actions and times to call it a day and to have a productive next day
Berkeley, Friday, August 24, 2018. 2:40 PM After a productive week, I stayed working yesterday until midnight. Part of the plan was to post an assignment later in the night. I already posted some work and instructions. A friend organized a seminar on campus today about the relationships between cities and rivers across time throughout […]
