Personal Narrative: Hey Roomie

Hey Roomie, Don’t worry I’ll get you a better nickname soon. I have nicknames for everybody — it creates a personal bond when I give people fun little names. That being said, I also love acronyms. I even made one off my name, SAI. S is Set-up. I adore Jonathan Morrison’s dream desks; I aspire to also have a beautiful ergonomically-perfect work desk as well. While cable management and overall look of the desk is clean, everything around it gets clustered. Don’t worry though. The area around will only be filled with post-it notes with all my tasks on them. My brother envies my ability to seem disorganized, and still complete everything on time. A is A time of rumination (sorry, a cheat!). I value not wasting energy. Always jittery, I meditate
to focus myself and reflect. Other times, I just channel my energy into flipping the pencil in my hand or solving the Rubik’s cube while doing other work. I is Investigating the world. I can never really sit in one place for too long. I like to mix up my surroundings and explore. For instance, sometimes I’ll work in the serene halls of the Terman Engineering Library, and other times I might just be sitting out on the Oval amidst the noises of the Stanford outdoors. Though the acronym is my name, I’m really not that conceited. I’ll be sure to work out one for you too. I look forward to meeting you!
