Another semester is almost over!  As per usual, I've put everything off until the last minute, just like I've done with little exception for my entire academic career.  I'm still not quite sure what it is about my habits now that allow me to get good grades: it seems like I've always been the same kind of student, doing the bare minimum at the last ( Read more... )

I truly do think that Diet Pepsi is the supreme drink of mortals.  It's so, so much more delicious than any other diet soda.  I take a sip of Diet Coke these days and all I can think is, "This is extremely diet!"  But with Diet Pepsi, I just enjoy.  What a valuable thing.  That said, chocolate soymilk is a bit more boring than I would have expected ( Read more... )

I love songs that strike me as great for scenes.  This one, "Good Dreams," is totally one of those "I just realized life isn't so bad/the clouds have parted" songs.  I realized it as I was on my walk tonight--it hit me in the face like a ton of bricks--and now I've totally fallen for it.  I'm even starting to adore the chorus, which struck me as ( Read more... )

It's been something of a long day, though in reality it feels to me as though my experiences in ethics and Japanese earlier were at least a few days ago.  Crazy stuff ( Read more... )

Work. Work. Work. I'm getting into a pattern there, definitely, but I wish I could find out exactly how I'm doing and what I need to do in order to improve.  And I want to be more conscientious ( Read more... )

I'm procrastinating again.  I have an ethics paper due Monday and I keep telling myself it's a good idea to do it--or at least do most of it--tonight, but I've just been sitting around.  I don't know when I'll wake up tomorrow and Sunday, but I close at work both days, so I don't want to let things slide all the way to like 1 AM Sunday. That would ( Read more... )
