I heard the sounds of a djembe and I turned over to see a fellow playfully rapping his hands against the instrument. He seemed like an interesting character so I decided to go approach him. He had just bought this djembe as a gift for his wife’s birthday and was on his way to work. Still, Yoni was kind enough to give me a portion of his day and share his story.
Yoni is a first year graduate student at UC Davis, studying soil science. He and his wife are both from Maryland, only recently had they moved to Davis. Yoni got interested in soil because of the important role it plays in our daily lives-- the quality and healthiness of the food we eat essentially depends on the soil in which they were grown in. With a brilliant smile, Yoni told me one of his goals is to become published in a scientific journal. One of Yoni’s favorite things to do is to learn; Yoni enjoys learning and filling his mind with a wide field of knowledge. Rather than becoming an expert on one certain subject, he would rather become a “Jack-of-all-trades”. Even if he doesn’t end up in a career revolving around soil, he said that he wouldn’t mind.
“My goal is to find a job that makes me happy-- Oh, and that can support a family too!”
Thank you Yoni, you have become Stranger #113 in my on-going stranger project.

All the front spring bushes are in an appalling state, the ones which are not swollen are pushes out the side of the springs and nowhere near concentric. The Front axle is turning into a bit of a marathon.
Hung out with my Evil Twin again today. We were having a nice time playing the Saved by the Bell board game until he accused me of cheating (he claims I pre-arranged the cards so I got all the dates with Kelly Kapowski) and, predictably, tried to stab me.
