So! I'm half way through my fourth out of five weeks in Ottawa... it's winding to a close just when it felt like it was beginning. And as fun and interesting it has been, I'm really looking forward to heading back home and starting phase II of summer 2006. I'm going to be doing research for a polisci prof. at Princeton Uni about the state of the ( Read more... )

I'm only minutes away from stepping back into my house after a 12 hour car drive back from Ann Arbor... and I already feel really sad. And that makes me even more sad that I feel that way. My home in Princeton is a place I never ever ever thought I would feel strange or out of place or want to be somewhere else more (except for maybe florence or ( Read more... )

This is because I've been avoiding writing an aweful paper on the European Union... but I also genuinely wanted to comment on this song ( Read more... )

Yes this is because I'm home alone right now and I have too much time just to sit around and contemplate things. But none the less. I can't get over the fact that pictures are so strange ( Read more... )

It's great to be home. I love being able to spend some time with my family, and being in a part of the country I'm familiar with. Even though no one's home because our spring break is freakishly early, I still get to see some of my fave peeps and four more are coming to visit for the Harmonettes concert March 11th. So all and all home = so nice ( Read more... )

Ever have one of those nights where you don't necessarily particularly feel like going out, so you just say well I'll stay in and do work, it's all good. And then you realize that everybody else went out? And then you're sitting at home and you can't even manage to do your work because you're too distracted by the fact that everyone is out? So ( Read more... )

How is it that being in the place where you should be feeling the most comfortable and at home, only makes you feel sad and confused? Meh.

This break is too short and too long at the same time.

Wednesday night: The house got robbed and two of my computers (one absolutely brand new) with various wires attatched got stolen. About 4,000 dollars down the hole, as well as quite a bit of school work and the harma newsletter. Though I think it's saved on someones computer... hopefully. Fingers crossed ( Read more... )

Everything is generally good. I just declared my two majors (political science and italian) which I'm really excited about. I just got accepted into an honors program in a villa in Florence for a month this summer, which I'm REALLY looking forward to. I'm plugging along with work and such, and I enjoy my friends and more than friend to the ( Read more... )

I have a 6-8 page midterm paper to write and have hardly finished my intro paragraph... and we're going on about 11. It's going to be a long evening... but as I already said... i can't really complain ( Read more... )
