It's not over until the fat Dominican homers
The baseball game last night was great, probably the best of the series. Glad to see Jason Varitek finally come through for the Sox, even though it's pretty sad knowing that these are probably his last games for them. He'll be a free agent after the season, and I don't think he'll come back, unless he takes a big pay cut.

Back from the brink
I didn't watch Thursday's game, but it turned out to have been very good. By now, I should know better than to give up on the Red Sox. However, I don't regret not watching the game, since "The Office" (namely, Dwight and the watermelon) was hilarious.
Wednesday night ended up being beef stroganoff night. It was nice to have it again, even though I ( Read more... ) -

Week 2 - I Don't Care About Apathy: What I Should Care About But Don't
I have never practiced organized religion in my life. Although several times within the last year, I've thought to myself, "Maybe it's time I start," I never have. Even though I needed to go to the Methodist Church in Old Town as part of my volunteer work, I didn't. Even when my school and personal lives fell into a downward spiral last spring, I ( Read more... ) -
Week 1 - Saying Goodbye
It seems that all too often, I never get the chance to say goodbye to people, and in the case of relatives, when I do make my final goodbye, they are in a condition I would rather not remember ( Read more... ) -
Week 0 - Introductory Post
Where to start... where to start...
My name is Chris, and I am 23 years old, even though I look noticeably younger. At the moment, I am an art student at the University of Maine, as well as a volunteer delivery driver with Meals For Me. At the moment, I don't have access to a scanner, but once I do, you can bet I'll be posting things I've done.

The big announcement... this is big...
After much deliberating, I have decided to participate in Season 5 of therealljidol . I actually made the decision over a week ago, but since it can't be truly official until today, here it is again.

All the world's a stage
Recently, I have read and heard that the world is a play, and everyone is merely an actor. Drawing only on my own experiences, I think this is a good philosophy, since I haven't really felt like myself since I was at MSSM. Getting into the art department should bring the real me out of suppression.

I think we all agree, the past is over
I did see "Hairspray" last night, and I enjoyed it. John Travolta made a pleasantly unconvincing woman, and if I should ever get married, "I Can Hear The Bells" will be played at my wedding ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: It's Too Late to Apologize
Usually I don't answer these prompts, but this one is so juicy...
Just about everyone in the civil engineering department has done something which fits that criteria at least once, if not multiple times. One faculty member, in particular, has been a strong contributor to my emotional downward spiral (I won't go into specifics, but his name rhymes ( Read more... )
