Thought: does the Doctor speak English, or does he speak Gallifreyan, and his companions hear English because the TARDIS translates for them ( Read more... ) -
ordinary times
my roommate just left for pajama-day themed rugby practice, the girl next door is playing christian pop, and I'm off to the library to check out West Wing dvds. College life: pretty good right now. -
hm
I'm leaving for college tomorrow morning at the crack of dawn. I'm not really sure how I feel about that. Well, the crack of dawn bit is obviously unpleasant, but the college aspect is giving me more trouble. Hopefully it'll be nice there. And it'll be an adventure, and that is an excellent thing, although as Bilbo Baggins has said, there's nothing ( Read more... ) -

why do other people use the library? and can I make them stop?
sometimes I wish that I was the only person who used the library in Santa Fe. If no one else went there, then I would not be stuck in my current situation. I had thought that, by working my way through two book series at once, if one were checked out, there would be a different sequel for me to get on with. NOT SO TRUE.

good day
I am officially admitted to two colleges as of today! And they were the two I really wanted to get into, which is pretty awesome. In other news, on the weekend I was waiting to hear about college (an oh so grownup thing) I rediscovered my love of Pokemon games.

Having just finished reading Lolita for the first time, and in the same contemplative and slightly depressed mood I am always in after finishing a book I've enjoyed, I wish I could go for a walk. Regrettably, there is about a foot of snow ( Read more... ) -
productivity is relative
Illyria isn’t Fred. Spike knows this. She doesn’t smell, move, or even look all that much like her.
He tells himself this often, and tries not to feel guilty about punching her in the face. Sometimes it works. The fact that Illyria can and does kick him into walls helps with the not feeling bad about it.
Fred loved tacos, shared crackers with him, ( Read more... ) -
five months isn't all that long
My current Artemis Fowl mania is getting a little ridiculous. I've started searching random newsites for keywords, just so that I can get happy shivers whenever I spot a poster or a book review ( Read more... ) -
those poets, man, they knew what was up
When it comes to the college application process, I feel that W. B. Yeats said it best:
The fascination of what’s difficult Has dried the sap out of my veins, and rent Spontaneous joy and natural content Out of my heart.
Yeah. Over the past few months I have fought with every member of my family at least once, and infuriated my (saintly, bless ( Read more... )
