1. FutureLearn: This new MOOC site is the British equivalent of Coursera and it allows you to take college courses online for free. Not only do they have a better variety of courses, but their site is so much nicer. The site itself is much more organized and cleaner than Coursera. It's easy to use and much more interactive and fun. Speaking of MOOCs...
2. MoocMonitor on Twitter: A MOOC is a massive Open Online Course site. MOOCMonitor on Twitter serves as a one-stop shop in regards to all things MOOC. It makes research for work much easier and is always presenting new course opportunities and classes I've never even heard of. Twitter isn't always relevant, but I think the creators behind this handle definitely have the right idea!
3. The 21 Loveliest Places to go on a Date in London: While it's lovely to think I'd move to London and meet the Prince Charming (or Sherlock Holmes) of my dreams, I just don't have that luck. But if I did, I'd be ready with this fantastic list of great date places. Even without the date to take me there, there are some serious hidden gems that I'd just love to see.
4. Hawking on PBS: On Wednesday evening, Stephen Hawking presented an in-depth look at his life so far. If you don't know anything about him, he's one of the most brilliant human beings living today. He also has been living with ALS since the 60s and is forced to communicate with slight movements in his cheek that power a computer. That man is nothing short of a medical miracle, and has still been able to present some of the most important ideas in Physics in a century. While I understand next to nothing of his work, I'm fascinated by the way he lives his life and the amazing pieces of medical equipment that allow him to continue working.
5. Mexican Food: I am in love with Mexican Food. I can eat it pretty much anytime of day, multiple times a day. It's even better when you have a father that makes REALLY delicious Mexican food. Yum Yum Yum! Only question I have is: when are you making more?
