So it's official, the work that I haven't been doing has come up to bite me in the ass. I don't even have that much work to do this semester, but regardless of how little work you have, neglecting that work is not a good idea. My rough draft for my capstone is due in 2 weeks. I have one word to say about that: FUCK. But no groups have started their ( Read more... )

So, I finally asked the boy out. I figured: what do I have to lose? Also, inaction is far more boring than action. Boy was it difficult to work myself up to it, though. He said yes, but I'm only fairly sure that he understood that I was asking him out. I'm pretty good at not being neurotic, except when it comes to these kinds of interactions. I ( Read more... )

The final installment of my adventures. I will try to bring this to a speedy conclusion, mostly because the longer it takes me to finish something, the less likely I am to finish it ( Read more... )

Not sure if I'm going to finish this from beginning to end because I'm using the blackberry at work. And typing anything takes forever ( Read more... )

Maybe I have set the bar too high, but I think it's gonna be good. It's been a pretty wild ride. A week of walking until I can't stand anymore, going to tons of museums, meeting crazy characters... good times. But still, I am ready to head back to Indiana in about an hour and a half. I'm not entirely sure how Johanna has put up with living in ( Read more... )

Johanna, referring to a character we encountered riding the Rutgers bus at 2am: "He said 'a lot of people think love is an emotion, but really love is a commitment.' And I wholeheartedly agree, but it would have been less powerful if I would have said it because I'm not wearing a bedsheet and sharing a sandwich with a stranger ( Read more... )

Ah, where to start? My family came to visit this weekend. There were ups and downs, definitely. The downs included Friday night when my dad had a meltdown and left the restaurant before we got our food, leaving us to have to call a taxi...We think he may have failed to take his thyroid medicine. And most of the ups were honestly when my parents ( Read more... )

I don't know what I have (or if I have anything?) But I cannot seem to get better for the life of me. And it's not the kind of illness where you just sort of cough or sneeze and can go on with your everyday life. Sunday I couldn't get out of bed, yesterday was much better, but today I came home from work exhausted and slept for 2 hours. And now I ( Read more... )

Bah, I think I have a sinus infection. I woke up this morning after 5 hours of sleep, feeling really unnaturally warm. I had a low grade fever and I was really conjested, which makes me think that I have a sinus infection. And in general I've just felt really weak all day. I have gotten about a paragraph read in my law reading all day. And because ( Read more... )

The end of a good weekend. Chocolate Prom was an experience, but it was definitely a good time. It was at an all-ages club, and allages were represented. Basically it was like an 8th grade dance, the average age was maybe 12 and it was fairly awkward. It was sort of like straddling the past and the present. It also reminded me of how glad I am that ( Read more... )
