Okay, I went to The Decemberists concert last night (Halloween) at a music hall downtown. There were so many amazing things about this that it feels appropriate to just make a list ( Read more... )

I am a firm believer in adventures: anything from serious, long-term adventures such as going on a long camping/road trip, to not so serious adventures such as taking the PVTA bus to the mall or biking around in an effort to get lost (but not lost enough that you can't find your way back). Adventures are meant to be a bit messy, in my mind; it's ( Read more... )

The first five people to respond to this post will get some form of art, by me, about them. I make no guarantees about quality or type, but I will assure that I will give it good effort and that the art will be individual to you, so if you get a mixed CD or some sort of painting doodle, yours is the only one like it ( Read more... )

I am sick and I don't approve of it. Being this congested should not be possible. Argh, Larissa got me sick, and I hope she isn't still experiencing similar uncomfortable-ness ( Read more... )

Disaffeced Youth of America... I'm so glad I wasn't one of those. I'm glad I'm not one of them still, and I hope I never become one. I mean, I just can't be that upset about the world all the time, because life is good, and I'd rather live it than complain about it. I have my days, sure, but being seriously malcontent just isn't my style ( Read more... )

I can't believe I'm here barely. I can't believe I'm a visitor in my own hometown for a weekend. I can't believe how weird it is to do the same old things, like go to the farmers market and drive to Igo's house. It's freezing here, and I like it because it felt wrong to be so warm at Smith all the time, but still, cold can eat you alive. I haven't ( Read more... )

Hey all y'all, I have a ton of work to do so I figured it would be perfect time to stop and write an entry in my livejournal. Life here is crazy, but among the best things are: applesauce, that it finally really feels like fall, and that my roommate and I get along really well. There are some people down the hall that are having major problems, and ( Read more... )

I just experienced the most bizarre ritual I have seen here yet. Convocation at Smith is basically a euphamism for "everybody gets rather naked and screams a lot". Washburn House theme was "The Time Warp" so we did Rocky Horror type things; I was Janet in the white slip'n'bra getup. It was fun, and I definitely didn't stand out against the girls ( Read more... )

I didn't even get a hug... Well, it's not like I asked or anything... I'm leaving, and I guess just feeling melodramatic. I put it to too much radiohead from the 3 new mix CDs that I did get! I'm pretty sure I never told anybody that I love some of the songs on these, but there they are... Not to mention the most apropriate "I'm going to college" ( Read more... )

Everyone (myself included) has been being really Emo lately.
