The semester's been over for a while now, so I've been sitting at home doing... basically whatever I've fancied.  That really hasn't amounted to much, though I guess I did see a couple of good movies (Boondock Saints, plz).  I've been eating relatively sensibly and getting outside for walks relatively often, too.  But I have something of an ( Read more... )

Christmas Break this year has given me something I haven't experienced in quite some time now: absolutely no obligations.  I've occupied myself doing a variety of things, most of which have occurred directly in front of that lovely little investment we call a computer.  I set up a little station for myself, in fact, so I could play video games and ( Read more... )

I'm sitting in Case Hall's lovely computer lab, home to so many hours killed between classes, and AIM Express isn't working: this seems like an all right time to write an entry ( Read more... )

I figure now's a decent time to update, especially being that I finally have something significant to say.  So here goes: As of today, I notified Dennis at Kinko's of my resignation, effective in two weeks.  As I do with everything, I overthought the entire ordeal.  I played the scene over and over in my head after all was said and done, searching ( Read more... )

What kind of thoughts does a good person have?  Is it okay for me to question an issue when no one else does?  These are things no one can really answer for you--indeed ( Read more... )

Discussions are dangerous and essential things, I think, because they can tempt one to cling blindly to an ideal in the face of opposition--or they can illuminate one's understanding of his convictions.  Sometimes they can do both simultaneously, and that to me seems like a great paradox.  I know it's true, though, because I've felt it.

I think it's time to update again!  I'd like to write in this journal a lot more than I do, but I suppose things aren't too bad if I write something every couple of weeks, right?  Sure.

I watched Napoleon Dynamite for (basically) the second time yesterday; I really have mixed feelings about it.  On one hand, the script has some incredible one- ( Read more... )
