Today was a good day. Woke up, got out of bed, ran a comb across my head... well kind of. I woke up, lazed around, then drove Ian back to UML. Went grocery shopping, took a shower, then went to mckendry's graduation party and have a lovely time. I saw a lot of people I haven't seen in a while: Primiano, Fulton, Sara, Cate Mazzola, and McKendry her ( Read more... )

Graduation was today. To summarize: talking for 45 minutes. Then a kick ass key note speaker. Then one hour of reading names. Then TONS of pictures with friends. Highlights of the day: actually getting a hug and praise from Ryvkin, and Javier Marion praising Me, Gary, and Maggie on still being some of his favorite students even though we only had ( Read more... )

It really hasn't hit me that I have 5 more days of classes until I'm no longer doing school for at least a year... With all this stress, I'm actually excited for it all to stop. I'll have a chance to do stuff I actually want to do for a year. Like sit, and learn to live without stress. Which would be lovely. But this whole "no more class" thing isn ( Read more... )

God damn, I need a job ( Read more... )

I'm going to shoot myself, I just can't make myself write this damn paper. My thoughts are all over the place, but its due in two days and I apparently HAVE to have it proof read by a tutor in the ARC or else it wont be accepted. This is a baby kid paper in which I have to italicize my thesis statement and follow a strict rubric... bah. I just feel ( Read more... )

A very good weekend, if I do say so myself. I ended up leaving the lab on Friday in which Ryvkin was actually happy for a change. Friday night for the most part was great except for minor shit shows at the end. On a walk to Bradley's Ryan Murph found $20 on the street... what a wonderful time to find extra money. Drinking beer at the world war II ( Read more... )

So on Monday me and McKendry started a mini-road trip to New York City. She got to my house around 10am on Monday...but it took us a half hour to get to the beginning of Spring Valley! The snow was coming down so wet and hard it basically turned to ice under the wheels of the car. We didn't think for some reason and thought the mini could make it ( Read more... )

Another good day of break, but yet another day of waking up crappy. I woke up with a HUGE headache. I'm pretty sure I have a sinus infection. Did nothing for a while, then me and John ended up going to Winnekenni Castle and severely underestimated the size of the lake. We ended up walking around for over two hours. Came back home and both me and my ( Read more... )

Quite a nice way to start the last spring break of my life. The last thing we did last night was eat quasadillas and watched Rocky Horror. Went to bed, woke up at the terrible hour of 8, but that was forgotten pretty fast. Hung out with Aking all morning and left around 10am when my mom picked me up. I tried going to the Sovereign Bank up here in ( Read more... )

WHAT. THE. FUCK! Fucking terrorists. Last time it was Hezzbolah, now its Hamas (again). Apparently my dad is like a rocket magnet. In 2006, rockets were fired at Haifa when my dad was there. Now rockets continue to be fired into Gaza and Israel is threatening another response. Luckily my dad's company negotiated that he'll work out of Tel Aviv ( Read more... )
