I just remembered the reason for my blog title

I suddenly remembered Alex's question from week 3 or so, concerning the title of this blog. Better still, I remembered the real answer, too. You see, I used to be a much larger person (about 40 pounds heavier before I started grad school a year ago) so that's where the bold part comes from. The oblique part can either be attributed to being Asian (think about it for a second) or having an different point of view.

Okay, back to work.
