Welcome to Dice With the Universe!

Generally, I am going to put some thoughts from my life here. They will usually have to do with my translation work or with my writing. Your comments are welcome.

Thanks.

The title of the blog, for those interested, is a part of a paraphrase of Albert Einstein's words -- "God doesn't play dice with the universe." The words originally meant Einstein's scepticism about Quantum Physics (that gives a statistical chance of an event occurring), but I use this phrase as a general guideline to life. Things don't happen randomly. If we want to succeed we need to make it happen ourselves.

Welcome again. Enjoy your stay.

Free at Last

Hooray! This semester is finally over. I sent the last of my assignments in on Friday (had the kids over for the weekend). This was one crazy semester. The class of my boss was interesting, but the pace and the sheer amount of info to digest together with the other things, such as learning to program in Matlab (I knew I had to do it earlier :) ) made the course very time intensive. The other class I took was relatively easy, but also time intensive due to a great number of labs and home assignments. Together with the important project review, the papers and the personal stuff, this semester was very very hard on me. Now, it is finally over. Here is hoping the next one will be better :). I am off to New York with my kids next week to visit my cousin.
Happy holidays to those who might be reading.
Cheers
