So currently my facebook is Haunted. Or something like that. It seems to me what happens is that I successfully post to one person. Then any successive posts I make to other people (regardless of who the first or subsequent people are) at first post to the correct person's wall, but within a minute or so, leave the correct person's wall and appear ( Read more... )

It seems to me that I do a rather pathetic job at keeping in touch with people considering how many internet "connection" sources I have available to me. It really hit home today as I was wondering through facebook asking for people's addresses for save the date cards and noticing how everyone seems to chat and keep up. Oh well. At least maybe my ( Read more... )

Hey all, I just wanted to let you know that Chris and I leave tonight for Rochester, NY. I'm attending grad school at the U Rochester for the next five years, so I should stay there a bit, but will be home to Portland for winter and summer breaks. :) My cell number should stay the same at least for a good while (503-449-8008) and that's probably ( Read more... )

Well, I'm now officially moved in with Chris and his housemate in Seattle. For anyone interested in hanging out or visiting, we're in Magnolia just on the other side of the Ballard Bridge. Things are working out pretty well so far too. After a few bumps, which were almost inevitable since I'm entering an apartment where Chris and his housemate ( Read more... )

I can't decide whether I have 4 or 5 days left until I graduate. Part of it has to do with the whole "when does the next day start?" thing--when you wake up or at midnight? Part of it is that I don't know whether to count Sunday or not--considering I graduate ON Sunday and pretty early at that. Oh well. Right now graduation feels so close and yet 5 ( Read more... )

So, I'm not dead. I'm alive and just sort of floating. I turned in my thesis last monday (which was actually a bit of an anticlimax since I had basically finished it over break). I had a voice recital the Sunday before last--it went well. This past saturday was a choir concert. Now I just have the WUC, orals, any corrections they tell me I need to ( Read more... )

Well, I got my first Grad School rejection letter. Really impersonal. It was from Yale, which was a reach school (it being Yale and all that) so I'm not that surprised, but still...it's the first time I think I've ever been officially rejected. Like on paper and all that. Luckily since I'm in at a bunch of other schools, including my first choice ( ( Read more... )

Oh my GOD!!! I just talked with Judith Smetana on the phone and...I'm accepted at the University of Rochester!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! It's my first choice as of right now and I am sooooooo excited and happy! I don't get the official letter or find out my financial aid for a while yet, but the committee met early to discuss some applications and ( Read more... )

Well, I'm in Seattle until the 12th visiting Chris since SPU started the 3rd. I was looking forward to being with him away from our families, but now I kind of miss being home since it's still my break. It's good times being here, but it's weird having no place or transport of my own--especially since he and his roomate are in school a bunch. Oh ( Read more... )

Well, I'm alive. That's right I survived the Psych GREs and Thesis turning in (well the first half) and finals... and am still breathing and going strong. Of course I've spent the last week doing absolutely NOTHING as part of the healing process, but I think I'm gonna pull through. Really though, it's been a pretty good time. Chris came up and ( Read more... )
