It's a little sad to say, but my last quarter of my undergraduate career has started. After a bit of work, I've finally found a schedule that works out for me.

Classes:
-The Italian Jewish Experience
-Judaism and Darwinism
-Interracial Encounters in American Fiction
-Captivity, Barbary Pirates, and Islam in the American Imagination

Really, the course ( Read more... )

I'm on break and in Norwalk with nothing to do all week. Please hang out with me.

Well, I managed to get the hold lifted on my student account last week. It was because of a library book that I never turned in. It only took a day to fix, but I was still too late in registering for classes. I'm enrolled in Interracial Encounters in Literature and second on the waitlist for the History of Judaism and Darwinism. However, I'm ( Read more... )

There's a hold on my account and I'm not entirely sure why. However, the real problem is that I haven't registered for all my classes and a lot of them are already closed. Weak.

So here's a conversation I heard in my house...

Chris: Mom, you have any money?
Mom: I have ten dollars in quarters.
Chris: Uh... give me two dollars in quarters.

So I had my last day at Cooking.com. I guess I never really explained what I did there. Cooking.com is an online retail store for cooking supplies. Cooking.com actually runs a number of ( Read more... )

I'm not really going to blame the economy or anything like that, but I'm being let go from Cooking.com. There's just not enough hours to go around. It sucks, but oh well. They gave me two weeks to find something else, but I told them that my last day is going to be Friday since finals are coming up. It's a bit sad since I did really like ( Read more... )

It's a little after 6AM and I can't go back to bed. I woke up around 2:30 and then had Chris get me Jack-in-the-Box while I played a game of DoTA. Life's good.

I'm pretty sure it's raining outside, but I really have trouble telling the difference between the rain and the sound of the fish tank in our house. Either way, I came down for the weekend ( Read more... )

I've been sleeping a wicked amount lately. I didn't go to work today because I was so damn tired, and I have a paper to write, which I still haven't started on. I'll probably end up having to miss work tomorrow too. I'm pretty sure that this isn't good for me, but shit. Even at work there's nothing for me to do sometimes. I just get paid to ( Read more... )

I'm still alive, but there's nothing to talk about.

This weekend was pretty lame. I managed to puncture the front tire of the Scion on Thursday turning into Jack-in-the-Box. Since I don't have a spare, I had to get it towed to down to a shop Friday morning to get it replaced. Then on my way back to Norwalk on Friday with David and Anish, one of the rear tires blew out on the 405 so I had to get ( Read more... )
