Standard Deviation

 

Stanford Dish, California

Midnight walks, chat conversations,

And I sit down, write on new sensations 

Hello America! O land of freedom, 

This campus looks like the Garden of Eden 

Squirrels and rabbits running around 

So much of greenery and birds singing sound 

“They even have a dog park!”, - he said amused,

While two dogs played ball-catching game, and not confused

Before we go to courts for beach volleyball

You’ve got to see the food at Arrillaga’s dining hall

$10 all-you-can-eat: strawberries, veggies, grilled meats, seafood, 

Yogurt, and three types of ice-cream made my belly feeling good. 

And people. The smartest people of the nation,

Not much to say, just inspiration 

Everyone seems a little genius, but me -

Last Sunday I took five hours to figure out how to calculate SD*

* SD = standard deviation
