Tomorrow is my birthday: it's a big one! Twenty-one years of age. Good heavens ( Read more... )

BTdubs, e'erbody, I made it home safe and sound. The last few days in Japan were hectic, and crazy, and bear exploration...at a later date. Today I'm too busy being lazy. (Which I think I may have earned, following three straight classes without so much as a lunch break ( Read more... )

Where am I? What's going on? I am being swept away! (I started to write, "The world is spinning too fast!" but it came out "The world is too much with me, late and soon!" Hmm. A much nicer, if stolen, way of saying the same thing.)

I go to lunch, just as I said I would, hauling Jack along so he won't be stolen. (Jack being my laptop.) After devouring some tasty foods, we returned to the CIE to continue our delightful symbiosis when ( Read more... )

Aunt Polly called me out. (Deservedly.) I am not, in fact, dead. Well, I might be a zombie, but the likelihood is low...if I was a zombie, this entry would probably just say, "BWAINS, BWAINS!" about fifty times ( Read more... )

Thank you, time zones...Japan gets Halloween FIRST! Before anyone else, baby. Japanese people don't celebrate all that much though ( Read more... )
