I just came home for the first time in about two months.  It's creepy how absolutely nothing changes, regardless of how long I've been gone.

That is all.

This summer, while most Political Science majors are riding a desk for an internship for some major law firm, or maybe even for some state government official, I've taken a slightly different route: I'm working at a factory.  While my job is extremely repetitive and monotonous, it has taught me several lessons that an internship never possibly ( Read more... )

I'll make a real post sometime soon, but this seemed like a good way to kill a few min of boredom.  Stolen from Kaitlyn.

The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed.

3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Put an ( Read more... )

My career in the Engineering Library of Michigan State University started simply enough: I needed a job and they needed someone to hire.  It might as well have been me, though if they were looking for someone more hard-working, they probably should have left the job vacant.

As the school year enters its final leg (8 weeks till the end of the semester!) my thoughts begin to turn to August.  August not only brings the start of the new school year, but also the beginning of another season of marching band.  My third and final!  Of course, marching band preseason tells us that football season is only a couple weeks away ( Read more... )

This morning, I did what I do every morning: I flipped my laptop on to check my usual sites.  I couldn't help but notice the Weather Channel ticker that I downloaded Friday night blinking blue and red.  This seemed odd to me, so I double clicked on it.  As I was waiting for the ticker to load, I looked out the window next to my desk.  Outside, the ( Read more... )

I realize that it has been a very long time since I've made any sort of meaningful entry.  Rather than strain to remember what has happened between my last entry and this one (Reader's Digest: grandpa died, started dating Kaitlyn, went with band to Orlando, started new semester), I'll settle with writing about the last week...I've realized that ( Read more... )
