A perpetual sigh. That is what I have been reduced to. I'm reaching a point where I have no energy, no will, no reason to continue. I have never felt such a strong sense of utter and totally apathy. But why is this so? I am certainly not spread too thin, there have been times in my life when I was MUCH more busy. It is not that I am not ( Read more... )

One fortunate (but currently unfortunate) outcome of my mother breaking her leg was that we had an extra ticket to Europe. It was to be a week in London and Paris, filled with luxury and lavish cultural experiences, not to mention really great wine. In a surprising chain of events, my father agrees to let me invite a friend to come along and fill ( Read more... )

I just saw "Requiem for a Dream." This would be a more than adequate replacement for the DARE program taught to elementary school children. If it scared me, it'll terify them.

Wow - what a mind trip. Way more pshychocatic and deep than i <3 huckabees. So, for those who have seen it and have pondered its meaning:

Who/what the heck is Frank?!?!?!
What's with the fat asian chick?
Why was the deal with Cunningham's fear/love thing and his kiddie porn?

That is (was) my alter-ego - I frequently enjoy mulling things over in a British accent. I suppose that before we move on to the professor's thoughts, an underview of homecoming. Although it was an enjoyable evening, it could have been better, as with most things in life. After picking Nadia up, a few of us met at Amanda Jamroz's house on the ( Read more... )

So my mom broke her leg today at 1:30, dialed 9-1-1 to get an ambulence, she had a splint put on in the emergency room and she will have surgury tomorrow. She fell off of her flip-flops and broke her fibia and tibia in a spiral-shape, thus her leg could bend almost 360 degrees halfway down her calf. So, she was admitted to the hospital and will ( Read more... )

So I was sitting in Spanish today doing nothing, as I do everyday, and picked up a poetry book owned by Olga. I now stand resolved to buy such a book for my own enjoyment. It contained amazing English, American, and Japanese poetry, all indexed by categories of emotion/season/human experiences. I wish I knew more about poetry and literature to ( Read more... )

Right, so I'm still in trouble - but not as much as I thought. Although the jury is indeed still out, I am not suffering as I originally anticipated. I am not inclined to disclose the details to all of you, it was a rather disgraceful and embarassing situation. Perhaps if you are really desperate to know the juicy details, send me an e-mail ( Read more... )

Perhaps the biggest mistake of my life, showcasing grossly poor judgement. Don't expect much contact with me for quite some time.

Fall break has been nice. The debate tournament was fun, we had a team take 2nd, and another one 1st in their respective events. I did make some new friends too. One of them I am especially proud of. She is a sophomore from Airline whose music knowledge far surpasses anyone I know (which says a lot). We were talking about various bands for ( Read more... )
