Rubik's Cube

I've always felt like a moron for becoming easily frustrated with myself and never putting in the time or effort to solve a Rubik's cube. It's a child's toy after all. Rather than feeling frustrated over not being able to fully solve the Rubik's cube, I sought out methods to solve it. There had to be a trick to it. Even if I had to face the reality that I wasn't a mathematical prodigy that would discover this solution intuitively, I would find the solution. On my own, I could almost stumble upon a solution and get three-quarters of the way there, but never the complete solution. So, I found a method online, and I'm proud to say that, with a little help, I was able to finally solve my Rubik's cube! My goal now is to be able to solve it independently, and maybe someday I'll be one of those speedcuber's I've always envied.

I also discovered... there's an app for that!

Tucson Poet's Studio

Came across Tucson Poet's Studio online today, and it seems like a cool place for a staycation. Wonder what other poets/writers stay there, and what it has to offer apart from typical amenities such as satellite TV. It has definitely piqued my interest.

One Sentence

I'm currently reading the book Drive by Daniel H. Pink. The book is about motivation, and at one point in the book he talks about what makes great men and women. President Kennedy's was once told by Clare Boothe Luce, one of the first women to serve in the U.S. Congress, that "a great man is one sentence." Rather than splinter our lives off into various purposes, it serves us better to orient ourselves toward a greater purpose. So, the question is, What's my sentence?
