So. Houston weather is taking it's toll on me. Andy swore you stopped noticing it after a few days. Well. It's been a week of humidity and I still don't like it. Today it was really humid in the morning, and that is not a fun way to start the day, getting all sweaty heading to your first class at 9:30 am. Then it rained. It's AUGUST. But of ( Read more... )

I saw my first dog in a week today ( Read more... )

OK. So like, an hour ago i ran through a fountain in the middle of houston. Now I am not talking some piddly fountain like the dolphin fountain or the ones at the mall. I mean a true, real life, massive fountain. Monument size fountain. And it is in the middle of Main street, which is a huge street. And by middle, i mean middle. It was ( Read more... )

My o-week advisor (a junior at jones) thinks i may be stalked by a ghost.

So here i am. Sitting in my very own dorm room (with my roomie) in houston. Surprisingly, the weather has been nice, a lot like a nice day at home, though today it has warmed up a bit and got a bit more humid, but still not bad. If it gradually gets to the icky houston weather i remember so clearly, then i may be able to adjust to it without ( Read more... )

ok, so a sad event that i feel i must share. Upon attempting to visit their website, i was dismayed to see the message "It's official. He's now the happiest frog on Earth" along with a giant picture of kermit wearing mickey mouse ears. I love the muppets, and to see them get bought by disney breaks my heart. I just can't love a place that ( Read more... )

I know it is silly to be homesick already, before i have even left home, but i can't help myself. I got an invitation today for sosmething that i can't go to because i will be at school. It was such a depressing moment. Up until today, it was still a semi-distant event, this moving away, but now that i am heading into my last week at home, i ( Read more... )

my brother rocks. He downloaded all of the Asterix comics and burned them to a CD for me. I love asterix! Currently trying to get through them all, and they are all still funny despite the fact that they were written for kids. It's very clever writing, and all the names of the charcters are hilarious, like the druid getafix, or the bard ( Read more... )

Greetings! Here I am on my beautiful new computer. It is so much fun! I am so excited that i finally have a computer that is officially mine, so I won't have to share if people ask to use it and I won't have people in my room using my computer. This is a big moment in my computer owning history. We counted the other day how many computers our ( Read more... )

So Lorraine is not leaving tomorrow, but Jamal and Antonio are. Antonio is for sure, and most likely Jamal, but maybe a different puppy. But two will leave tomorrow. Antonio is a stud. Literally. I said my goodbyes today to Jamal and Antonio. They are such sweethearts. I know i've said this before, but I'm going to miss them!
