Well. So I'm tired as hell; you know, that kind of exhausted, brain-mush, hopeless kind of exhausted. I mean, I've been stressed before, and over-worked, and really tired: but never quite like this. I've been going non-stop since October, and I'm feeling it. I expected to get to rest over fall-break, which I didn't get to--I had shitloads of ( Read more... )

I am currently attempting to finish my biology paper, concerning suicide from an evolutionary perspective. It is a quite fascinating subject, and has led me to the perhaps even more interesting subject of depression from an evolutionary perspective. One dude, one David Nettle, writes ( Read more... )

Well, today is my and Brian's third anniversary. In some ways, I'm just taking it in a stride ("Hey, it was two years last year, of course it's three years now! Besides, I have tons of school work to do."), but in some ways, it strikes me that it is indeed quite a long time. Often, I find myself comparing three years to the rest of my life -- at ( Read more... )

I am--and have been--working frantically on my religion paper (a comparative study of myths of nature religions and how society affects said myths, etc etc, yada yada, rinse and repeat for rituals). I think I'm almost done, which is good, since it's due on Friday. So is my biology paper (suicide from an evolutionary perspective). I have been ( Read more... )

I have two things to say: Happy New Year, and champagne is gross.

Cheers!

Well, today it's Christmas Eve, and we've just finished opening all the presents (in Sweden we open on the 24th, not on the 25th like you crazy americans). I'm really restless for some reason so I'm just gonna make a list of my gifts:

- tiny laptop from Dad
- cell phone from Mom (just for calling, nothing fancy)
- a decorate-it-yourself mug ( Read more... )

Brian is so poetic and romantic and stuff sometimes. Here is a brilliant example:

[20:22:10] Brian says: You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy, when clouds are blue *hugs*
[20:22:30] Brian says: ...
[20:22:34] Brian says: when skies are gray*
[20:22:41] Brian says: and I'm talking about my dad losing his mind

(For those of you who ( Read more... )

Well. So last week after the tests in Spanish, English and math, I figured I was about done. It was just one more week of school to sort of sit through. I could take it easy ( Read more... )

Well, on Tuesday I had my Spanish test, which went well enough. I feel I'm making progress in Spanish ... without actually doing much. I suppose I go around and speak it randomly to everyone, which might help. Not gonna complain if I get better for free though. =P ( Read more... )

*sings wonderfully* Oh, why, thank you, thank you, you are most kind. Mm, these old tomatoes are really good ( Read more... )
