		<title>Motivation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Something from my friend, who I will refer to only as Dubya, that was profound and hilarious at the same time:
I had a really weird dream last week about "motivation".
One of the Baldwins were lecturing me on how to stay motivated in life. He was asking me what I wanted out of life. I said, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Drowning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It's not often I get caught up with the lyrics of a song, and it's not a particularly new one either, but for whatever reason I am completely enamored with this song right now. The lyrics and the melody are beautiful. Everything about the song is beautiful.

		<title>Chinese New Year Cleaning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My roommate J went out for a friend's birthday last night while his gf V spent nearly 3 hours cleaning the apartment (I helped a bit too) for the Chinese new year. Think of it as a spring cleaning type of ritual that happens during CNY.

		<title>Yelp: A Rant</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My friend jigg has a thing about never reading any reviews on Yelp because the reviews are usually shit. I can't say I disagree with him, although I do like to use the aggregate rating from a large number of reviews as a barometer of what I might expect.
A review for Primehouse, a steakhouse that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Weird Ways People Find Me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am always amused at the search terms that lead people to my blog.
The stuff that does not surprise me are generally search terms having to do with Brazilian jiu jitsu and tattoos or search terms related to the videos or articles I post up.

		<title>First Trip of the Season</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Went snowboarding in Killington, Vermont this weekend and had a decent warm up for the season. Hopefully I'm ready for Utah. Unfortunately, I caught a cold this weekend.
