on if it's not one thing, it's your mother
Sometimes it’s hard to remember, but it’s not always a bad thing when someone tells me I’m like my mother.

on High Fidelity
I was listening to Madonna's "Like a Prayer" and thought that it could possibly be my favorite pop song of all time ever. Then I decided to think off the top of my head and list my top five pop songs, so I'm going to share them.

on the end of summer and the GMAT
The sound of the rain outside is simply hypnotic today. The heavier it pours, the more inclined I feel to go home and wrap myself in my warm sheets (Gain scented, of course) and cuddle with the bichon. I mean, obviously I should study for the GMAT some tonight but there's a certain drowsiness that rain creates. Quite similar to the effects of ( Read more... )
