I have a blue belt.

That is all.

I'm really rather miffed at the Gaieties people. Being a four class dorm with an apathetic middle floor, we couldn't sell a ton of seats for Friday night, so they moved us entirely to Thursday during the middle of a midterm that, like, half of my freshmen are in. Also, this makes it harder for us to get in line early for Harry Potter.

NOT PLEASED

I know I'm never good about updating on a regular basis, but I can tell this year may well be the worst yet - at least in those terms. Probably the best in actual living terms, so I'm okay with it. I'm just rather continuously busy with balancing the freshmen and other residents in one life and having a life outside the dorm in another. My freshmen ( Read more... )

Training is going quite well, life is going quite well. Well, quite amazing really. Tracy sent pictures from the road trip, Nate's on campus for 12 whole months, I'm an RA about to go on staff retreat, I'm going to a party tonight with Jarreau, Josh, Nicole D., Jules, Joe and Grahamzi, Arran's gonna help me get my couch soon and life is pretty damn ( Read more... )

I am here! Back on campus as of tomorrow (officially), but spent the day around town with the lovely Tracy, Kate, Hammad and Edwin. Am so glad to be no longer living out of a car and to be with such fun people, though I miss the folks back home already. Lau and Katie especially - those were the happiest two phone messages ever ( Read more... )

Thank you for a lovely summer, Grosse Pointe ( Read more... )

So, t-minus 5 days till Tracy and I take off for California. I'm trying to be good and pack early, but every time I start I just keep thinking about not really wanting to leave. I've had a really fantastic summer, and I've had a great time with my parents. Padre and I went to the African American History Museum yesterday, which was lovely, and he's ( Read more... )

Well, four hours and fifty-five minutes later...

I just have this intense desire to fly back to school and be at Kenpo this morning - I need a punching bag. Badly.

After a lovely long day of work, and a quiet toast to a two year anniversay, I'm going to sign off for the weekend. Hopefully I'll be back late Sunday night, in which case I'll rant and rave and finally start updating more often. As for now, have an amazing weekend, all of my wonderful friends. Cheers.

So today, somewhere around the 14th floor landing, I realized that this really is a fantastic summer. I finished Malcolm X's autobiography at work (which they let me leave an hour early today - well, that's kind of mitigated by the fact that I'd worked 45 min. extra every day w/o pay, but hey, an hour is an hour), I've been having an amazing time ( Read more... )
