the lilac bush outside the back door is wafting its fabulous flowery scent through the entire 1st floor. the cut lilacs my mom put by my bed are covering the 2nd floor. my house smells like heaven. this is just 1 of the million reasons i am happy to be home.

tara reid's mom is named donna. donna reid. it just seems wrong and mixed up somehow.

i still feel like a total nerd in comparison, but thank goodness i didn't actually get to be like y'all. i may have wished it in high school, but i'd be so disappointed in myself if i were now you, instead of me. you're definitely nothing to aspire to. so sad. so sad.

so, there's a question from the 2nd imd exam that i consider to be unfair. it's already been contested once by someone else. but, as i love opportunities to argue with the system and EVERY little point is important for me, i decided to write to dr. sweeney again. ugh, i am completely appreciative that he is even considering approaching the lecturer ( Read more... )

happy day after the 4th of july!
