I finally sent my taxes off today :( Ever since I calculated everything and realized just how much of my soul I was selling to the government *cough* Halliburton *cough*, I decided to prolong payment as long as I could. Personally, I think college should be more of a write-off. I've been working my butt off since just before graduation about two ( Read more... )

I went to my old church (the Catholic one) with my mom today, and the service was probably the most bizarre I've ever attended. The priest that was there when I used to go had since retired, so I was unfamiliar with the presiding priest, Father John. Anyway, the service was normal until the Homily, when Father John set out to find the youngest and ( Read more... )

I'm so stressed out right now. I'm still packing, I leave for the airport in less than 2 hours, I still need to go to the ATM and get cash, print my e-ticket, charge my cell phone, pick up my digital camera. the worst part is, I don't know how this happened! I'm always so good about packing early and having a nice, non-stressful morning when I ( Read more... )

My meeting with my professor went well (I only need an 82% on the final to get an A!) and my study session was productive because I got notes I missed from the two days I was sick last week. Now I just have to wait for Mya and Tim to finish their finals so we can go out and celebrate his birthday. So now I'm just waiting in the library, pretending ( Read more... )

I worked a double last night and was getting pretty cranky as the night continued and my finals loomed closer which is probably why I snapped (not that it's any excuse). I was working with this girl who has recently been obsessively dieting (not anorexia, just always being on ridiculous diets) and she started telling my that I should really watch ( Read more... )

Tina, Harry and Julian's mom, has been out of town all week, and since her husband is a surgeon and out of the house every morning by 6 and not usually back before 8, I was let in charge of Harry. This meant my days started at 4:45am and didn't usually end until 1:00am. here was what a typical day looked like:

MTWHF 4:45 wake up, groan, cover my ( Read more... )

I'm going on a date on Wednesday, but since I got tricked into going and don't even want to go, I'm not counting it as breaking my Lenten vow of refraining from all forms of dating. How did I get tricked, you ask. The answer is easy. The boy I did my psych extra credit project with (the interview/lying one) said he had a girlfriend, so today when ( Read more... )

I get my brain project back tomorrow in psych. The grade I get on this project will essentially determine if and how much I have to study this week for finals. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for no studying, although my professor doesn't usually give out more than one or two A+ per project, and he said he's never given out a 100% so here's hoping I ( Read more... )

My Corvallis plans fell through, so I expected to have a nice night in last night. Such was not the case. Mya called me to see if I could pick her and a friend up from pioneer and then have a sleepover. I was eager for company because I haven't really had the opportunity to hang out with people lately. Unfortunately I neglected to remember Mya ( Read more... )

Last night Kalen and I rented this movie about this boy and his dysfunctional family and how messed up his childhood was as a result of it. After the movie, Kalen said something along the lines of "it's a good thing it was just a movie and real families aren't that messed up." I didn't really think much of her comment since it was 3:30am and I was ( Read more... )
