Today I was invited to join a facebook group called "I Love G-Dubbs." I wasn't sure what it was talking about so I went to the group's page and discovered that the obnoxious conservatives at NYU are now referring to the President of the United States with this ridiculous moniker. Yeah, that's real credible. More troubling to me is how I was ( Read more... )

Hallo. Salut. So while some people will have already read this in my away message, it amused me enough to bear retelling.
Just now I went down to Duane Reade, where they are selling 1 litre bottles of Poland Spring for 77 cents each (and only with your dollar rewards card, at that). On the shelf below they have a 3.79 litre container of the same ( Read more... )

I didn't even bother to check when was the last time I wrote. Sowwy.
So I had a truly hilarious New York Experience yesterday, which I'll relate while I wait for my kosher-for-Passover broccoli soup to cook. I'm taking the very crowded subway home from DHS and these two losery middle-aged guys get on the train near me and start having one of ( Read more... )

I suck at life and I don't even have enough time to think of posts or make them, so I'm just gonna put up some quotes and you'd better like it.

Quotes of the Week:"But was Mustafa Sa'eed a sadist? I mean he had mirrors in his room but, ya'ani, that does not make him sadist. Sadists use...other things." ~Professor Khouri ( Read more... )

One of my strongest irrational fears is psychiatric hospitals. Like, I've never been inside one where crazy people still actually live, but they're always so ominous-looking and intensely creepy. So early this morning, not only was I feeling a little trepidatious about the fact that I had to go get a TB test done at a men's homeless shelter, but ( Read more... )

Briefly, I would just like to report that I just took a completely fruitless, yet quite..."refreshing"...walk to Weinstein and back, and now I am in a horrible mood.

PS- Ditchers.
PPS-I'm fucking starving now.

So classes have been in session a whole week, and I haven't yet made the inevitable post about stupid people in my classes. This might seem to indicate that, against all odds, there aren't any. However, we must not forget that the odds are perpetually stacked against me, and today I saw just how much.
You'd think that by now, in my sixth semester ( Read more... )

There's this lady at the chemistry department that is eight months pregnant and huge. And each day I've been here in the last two weeks, I've heard at least one person tell her so. They're like "You're huge!" Then they rub her stomach. If I am ever preggers, I am going to wear a sign on my belly that says "Keep off the baby."
Anyways, people ( Read more... )

Sometimes life sucks so bad that it is funny. At this point, all I can do anymore is laugh.
I just got back from an interview for an internship at the Department of Homeless Services of New York City. I didn't think I cared whether or not I got it until I got there and realised how nice it is and how many people I could meet. So the lady comes ( Read more... )
