Zoe - my very maintenance Yorkshire Terrier - has allergies. She's licked and nawed her paw raw. She is so sensitive that she is pretty much freaking out about it. We have soaked her feet in cold water which supposedly helps control the itch for a short amount of time. We tried to give her allergy medicine but she almost bit our hands off and ( Read more... )

I stepped outside of the speech building to get some fresh air before my class started. Just as I stepped outside, another girl came out to have a cigarette. I noticed that her fly was open from the corner of my eye. It creates an awkward situation, you know? Do you say something or don't you ( Read more... )

I am in an on-and-off pissy mood. Is it the fact that my short vacation is over, my speech class starts on Monday, studying for the LSAT is a bore, I'm dissatisfied with where I live and what I'm doing (or not doing), or all of the above?

The semester is over with. No more papers, exams, or boring lectures for a whole another week. I'm taking a spring class. One of those General Requirements that I put off until the very last minute.

I've just been kicking back and relaxing this break before it all starts up again and I have to start studying for the LSAT on top of everything.

There's nothing like being woken up at six o'clock in the morning every other day to loud music. I finally got fed up with the situation and called the landlord and left a message. I have no idea if he called our neighbor and told her that there was a complaint so I suppose we'll just have to wait and see if it gets any better. It pisses me off ( Read more... )

A new word for me:

"lactard - A lactose intolerent person

e.g., I can't drink milk--I'm such a lactard!"

I skipped my morning class and I'm tempted to skip my afternoon class as well. It's too nice outside to be stuck in a classroom with a woman who is such a poor professor. The topic isn't terrible but her presentation of the material is quite awful. However, it's likely that we'll get back our exams (that we turned in about a month ago) so I ( Read more... )

I can breathe a sigh of relief now. We gave our presentation this afternoon and ended up doing a pretty decent job. The other individuals in our room ended up reading from their papers which made for a pretty boring half hour. I don't mean to feed my own ego but I honestly think our presentation was easy to understand, to follow, and that most ( Read more... )

I found this website while I was at work: An Iraqi blogger.

We live in an area where you have two universities within a a few miles of one another. On St. Patrick's Day that means there are a whole lot o' drunken students running and driving around. People actually came into my eleven o'clock class drunk which seems a bit absurd to me. Being the geeks that we are, I think we'll just order in and watch ( Read more... )
