Well, another weekend has come and gone, meaning that it's that time again. Yep. Gotta hold down the fort for yet another week. Physics and chemistry have got to be two of the most tedious subjects I've had the pleasure of encountering in my short lifetime. On a lighter note, I had a fantastic weekend consisting of Sig Nu's Kentucky Derby and Pike' ( Read more... )

Just two more days til I head back down to rough it in the Durrrrrty South! Honestly, it's been such a weird feeling being "home" again. My bed seems big. I'm averaging 10+ hours of sleep a night. No papers, homework, trips to the library. Everything seems too easy and it almost feels as if my brain is atrophying in a pile of mush. Call me crazy ( Read more... )

Let me just start off by saying that the weather outside...SUCKS. It's what the Weather Channel calls a "wintery mix" but all I see is rain and ice pounding the ground outside.

Everyone seems to update their LJ constantly and with actual content that mine obviously lacks. Oh wait, Mr. Fat Ass just sat down next to me and my day has just brightened because I can safely say that I will NEVER let myself go so much as to even remotely resemble him. I can sleep soundly tonight ( Read more... )

So, tonight was definitely a night to remember. These guys serenaded "Surfer Girl" to me. It measured up to the time J.J. Redick hit on me. I think these two events are currently tied for "Best Duke Experience EVER."

DON'T BE JEALOUS...

Engineering 53 pretty much owns my soul. The rest of you can split the 0.0000000009823 remainder amongst yourselves.

Oh, did I mention how much I love multivariable calculus. Triple integrals of spherical coordinates is the cherry on top of this sundae I call "Life." Math 107 will probably leave me throes of bliss. Yes. Good times, indeed.

And I still have no costume which poses an immense issue seeing that I will be in UNC in about 48 hours, partying it up with some crazy kids on Franklin Street. Maybe I'll end up going in normal clothes...do you think I could pass off as someone normal? I wish I were still young enough to get away with trick-or-treating; alas, if I were to trick-or ( Read more... )

As I rode the C-2 bus back to East Campus, I saw something that I hoped to achieve one day in the future. A couple, probably in their 50s, sat at the very back of the bus, holding hands. Their wedding bands caught the light and gave a slight twinkle with each bump of the bus. They were chatting quietly, but their body language spoke volumes. She ( Read more... )
