My name is Paige, and I'm a bit of an optimist. Or at least, I try to be. As someone who believes that there are narrative arcs in real life, I gotta hope my story has (multiple) happy endings.
Beyond being an optimist, I'm a mathematician. Or at least, I try to be. I've been interested in math, and more specifically math education, ever since I learned that multiplication was repeated addition in the second grade. One can argue whether or not my understanding of math has increased since then.
I'm also a bit of a writer. Or at least, I try to be. I've been blogging since March of 2020 (hmm I wonder what happened that month), and from time to time I write for The Tech. Writing helps me process parts of my college experience, and while it's been an uphill battle here at MIT, I hope that one day I will be able to look back on it and be able to love every flaw and every beauty in my four years of undergrad.
Let’s see what else. I have two cats named Schrödinger and Kung Pao, I try to integrate Page puns into my online presence, and my favorite writing faux pas to use recklessly is a good run-on sentence (to spite my fifth grade teacher who said “only Victor Hugo should write sentences that last longer than a paragraph.”). Here's to sentences that last longer than a paragraph, parentheticals that begin (but never end, and the impending ending of my four years at the 'tvte.
Let's see how this goes.
