Internet Hygiene

I just did most of one of those strange internet hygiene related tasks- I copied all the emails that were hanging out in my brandeis email's inbox because I wanted to keep them into a word file. It was a truly strange experience, as such always is when I've done so before. It's a bit like time-lapse photography. There were a few emails from freshman year, a few from sophomore year, a chunk from junior year and a bunch from last year. Many of them were from my parents or grandmothers, and it was rather lovely to see them reacting to me as I grew through those 4 years. Another chunk of the stuff saved there was from some folks I'm no longer in touch with, for one reason or another- that part really was a reflection of some of the different 'places' that I've been over the last 4+ years, and how those things were meaningful (and yet to still fly through them in the process of a general housecleaning type task). It was a really interesting balance of experiences.
