Being my last few days in Cleveland (funny, I've been starting to say "this is the last time I'll do ___ before I go to college" for a lot of things), Nil and I are fitting in a lot of activities. It seems almost like we're fitting a whole high school career full of nights into two weeks- yesterday we went to the drive-in movies (Catwoman wasn't ( Read more... )

I have a relatively legit excuse for not posting here for a while. Nil has been at Case orientation the past week or so, which means, ironically, that she is free at night for almost the first time ever. My dad put it rather astutely when he said "this must change the whole dynamic of the relationship." I've been spending a lot of time with her ( Read more... )

Whew boy. Good party! Thanks to everyone who came, it was great to see you guys. I was worried that there wasn't going to be enough space for everyone and such, but it seemed like everyone was pretty comfortable. Cleanup also wasn't so bad, because you folks are relatively neat. I've found I quite enjoy playing host, it's really my bag, baby ( Read more... )

It doesn't seem like I dream that often (lack of sleep will do that to you), and I remember my dreams even less. But sometimes, when I do remember my dreams, I remember almost every last detail- and these are often the weirdest dreams of all. (Remember that really long 3-act one during the school year, US guys?) For your perusal, I'll write what ( Read more... )

Clear your schedules, folks. I'm having a graduation/leaving party at my house in CLeveland Heights this Saturday (the 14th), in the evening, think between 7 and 8-ish (leaning toward 7:30), and if you're on my buddy list, you're invited (yes, even the chica from California, if she wants, heh). If you're not on my list, call me and see. Heck, ( Read more... )

Thankfully, the plane did not crash. I have delayed writing because I'm working on a colossal journal of my trip for you all to read. Hopefully that will be done soon ( Read more... )

Dust. It fills my nose, it chokes my lungs, it courses through my veins. Besides the metaphorical sense, it is literal: I spent all of yesterday cleaning. First of all, I actually got halfway through cleaning my room, exposing an entire population of dust bunnies that had grown rampant in the detritus that has covered my floor since 5th grade.

An update!

In the interest of making my journal digestible, I will make summaries of the past few days in the style of the Webby Awards acceptance speeches; that is, 5 words each.

Last Weekend (Working at Chuck's, yes, first name basis): Begging for tips really works.
Monday (Cottage in Vermillion, OH): Putt-putt golf and stormy-weather swimming ( Read more... )
