I am so completely exhausted; ever since the Saturday after Thanksgiving, all I have done is wake up, maybe go to class, work on my senior design project, then go to sleep. I haven't seen Alex, and I've hardly eaten. In fact, I've lost like 4 pounds because of this class. feel free to completely ignore this post, but I just need to vent ( Read more... )

it's that season again. recruitment ( Read more... )

this is an addition to jessica's update about palin. before I get to my main point, I have another article that I thought was funny. I usually dislike dowd's writing because she is irritatingly biased without much support given, but parts of this article are hilarious.

okay, now on to the discussion.  Normally I don't get into arguments about ( Read more... )

...about the weekend.  First of all, let me just say that I began planning quite some time in advance.  But here's how it went down:

what the hell has been going on with the world lately? i mean, first there was the thing in myanmar, then the earthquake in china, and now every single time i go onto weather.com there is some sort of warning for champaign, and sometimes up in michigan. literally, every time. there's been a million tornados, and all that flooding. yesterday i had ( Read more... )

IS IT REALLY THAT HARD TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO LOAD A DISHWASHER!? I MEAN REALLY! omfg.

hey everyone! it's been forever... i have been hella busy. i had midterms starting 2 weeks before finals... so by the time i was done i had been taking exams for 3 weeks. not fun.  i think i did pretty well on finals though; i definitely owned two of them. and i actually had fun taking one of them. it's fulfilling to see how much you've learned ( Read more... )

Dear "The L Word" viewers who obsessively watch the show then immediately get on lj and rant about how bad you think it is,

You are retarded. I am extremely tired of this fad of saying that the writing is horrible and there's no character development and you are about to stop watching the show and ever since dana died it's just gotten crappy. You're ( Read more... )

i will post on a few things. first, the rose bowl. it is disappointing how big the spread was by the end, but i am satisfied with their performance. the first half sucked (which is basically why we lost; we all know that the first half determines the game for the illini) because for some reason they didn't have juice try to throw some passes until ( Read more... )
