Hi.

I’m Victoria, and this site mostly has my sewing projects and science writing, with a sprinkling of older poetry & etc.

I’m a prairie kid, parent of two, celiac, and like lane swimming. I love to research. I did my undergrad in physics & English with a math minor. I’m now doing a Master’s in economics.

A note about the blog title: in math and physics, the prefix eigen means one's own. It comes from the german, but mostly I always liked thinking about a particle's eigenvalues, and thought I might apply the same thought to my excursions.

For a change of pace, here's a streeter I appeared in in beautiful Saskatoon. For the record, this is honest-to-goodness how these boys approached me and it's not that I don't think personal hygiene is important, it's just not all-important. Maybe. I'm the girl in the first segment, and then in other spots.
