I've been avoiding writing these scholarship essays for a few days in hopes that by the time I sit down and do it, I'd be productive. No such luck. I've got one sentence written and I just noticed the application has two different application dates. So it's either due Monday or Tuesday ... either way I should finish it today. I just can't figure ( Read more... )

So I've come to ask myself whether writing on LiveJournal about my life, my frustrations, things that piss me off or things that make me happy are approriate ( Read more... )

Trying to get the wireless PCI card to work on my other computer was so frustrating today that I basically took my frustration out on the netgear support reps who wouldn't help me because I haven't registered my product.

But i was really really close. oh well. must buy some working mouse traps ... the ones i bought today are crappy so i've got to return ( Read more... )

I'm speechless. The Strokes show in El Paso was THAT good especially when Julian jumped into the crowd and attempted to sing while making it all the way down to the end of the pit. From my view at the balcony, I saw people grabbing him and pulling him while security tried to pull him back. Haha. He kept mumbling once he was in the pit in between ( Read more... )

I've been yawning all day and telling myself that I'm tired. I slept early but it's probably been the series of events the last few days that's making it harder for me to stay awake. Right now, I'm feeling the grogginess and I'm ready to fall asleep any minute but there are so many loose ends to tie up before I leave for El Paso including two ( Read more... )

till I see the Strokes live again in El Paso, TX. Yes, Yes and Yes! Hooray! It'll be more than a nice break. I'll get to see my wonderful friend Pat from AP and we're going to see the Strokes. OK, I've mentioned the Strokes way too many times but I can't help but get excited. I changed my mind last minute and decided to fly out there early so I ( Read more... )

I really do love my aunt ... she's smart, funny and overall a nice person except for her negative comments but I understand she only means well. She invited me to go to her company party today but I had to get dressed up. No big deal I figure. I take a shower, wash my hour, put on some lipgloss and get dressed. I wore a floral skirt I bought in NY ( Read more... )

I don't get it. I really don't understand my dad. One minute I think I'm winning points with my dad and another minute I'm at the bottom of the pole again. Today he had to point out his observation that I seem to have a lot of time on my hands because my Monday/Wednesday classes don't start until noon. I feel like I do so much for my family, buying ( Read more... )

There was an article in the NY Post and the AP about a girl named Diana Chien, a sophomore at NYU who plunged to her death last week. Police in the article said she had a fight with her boyfriend earlier which might've prompted her to go over the edge. Seeing the photo online on the Post's site sent chills down my spine ... the girl was so young ( Read more... )
