What is this?
The idea of this page is to list the blog posts I have published in a systematic, easy-to-navigate fashion, and also outline future blog posts ideas that I have floating around in my head waiting to be typed out and published at the appropriate time (time management -- a valuable skill especially at Amherst!). These posts/ideas are organised into broad categories, which I hope you find useful for navigating, as opposed to in reverse chronological order.
