Travels of Adam

Well, hey! Look it’s me on Internet-TV! Why? Because I’m oh so charismatic.

Why?! Okay, well I was interviewed by Joselin from BostonTweetUp.com about our Boston Twavel TweetUp #2 event. His company is kind enough to organize and maintain a running calendar of various meet ups around Boston. A really useful resource if you’re interested in meeting people (who isn’t, really?). Some history on Boston Travelers after the jump, as well as the details for Friday’s TweetUp.

So, yesterday I spent a good 6 or 7 hours at Boston’s Museum of Science. We went to see the Harry Potter™ Exhibit and ended up seeing 2 IMAX movies while we were waiting. Considering I haven’t been to an IMAX movie since I was a kid, I’ve been to a surprising amount in the past year. By my count, it’s at 4.

I’m not complaining, and in fact if you haven’t been to an IMAX feature at your local Omni Theater -- go now! They’re fun.

However, I’m supposed to be writing about Antarctica so here it is. Read the rest of this entry »

Wombat Wednesday is a photo series showcasing the travels of Mr. Wombat. Who is Mr. Wombat? Well, he’s a stuffed wombat I brought back from Australia. Why? Because wombats are awesome—especially Mr. Wombat who has been all over the world. Kind of.

Oh hey! It’s Wednesday again.

Can you guess where Mr. Wombat is visiting today?

Fischli/Weiss at the Tate Modern (apologies for the blurry shot)

When I was uploading photos from my semester at London, I came across this poster I’d seen at the Tate Modern. It’s a listing of 10 commandments on how to work better (from the artists Fischli & Weiss).

After a week like this one (needless to say, work was tough this week), sometimes it’s nice to think of ways to make your time at work better. I’d also like to point out that these aren’t just commandments on how to work better, but can be applied to life in general—especially the following rules:

• Learn to listen
• Learn to ask questions
• Accept change as inevitable
• Admit mistakes
• Be calm
• Smile
