As inspired by girlyunderwear

1. Adult Acne

Sometimes when I look in the mirror I have to ask myself some serious questions like: Am I sixteen or twenty-six? Did I fall asleep with my head on a pillow, or face down in a pizza box? You think at this point in your life, you’d be done with the rites that are mostly reserved for puberty, but no. With the money I’ ( Read more... )

Being back at Goddard feels great. There's something to be said about being in the middle of nowhere and I've felt more at peace and happier here than I've felt in months. I'm busy, I'm productive, and all of the concerns and anxieties that have plagued me have dissipated to all but nothing. I wake up early. I talk to people and I get inspired. I ( Read more... )

I don't believe in New Years resolutions; never have. I'm one of those people that says cliche things like, "You shouldn't resolve to be a better person just because it's a new year-it's something you should be working on all the time." In any event, 2011 has gotten off to a rocky start. It just seems like everything is erring on the side of ( Read more... )

The other day I was marinating the idea of posting an entry similar to my last, but naming my least favorite things of 2010. I came up with a few on the spot: iPads, Bristol Palin, Justin Bieber's hair, the TV show Glee, and Betty White being in everything I watched. Don't get me wrong, I love Betty and have since the Golden Girls. One time when my ( Read more... )

1. Flannel. You would think as someone who idolized lesbians from an early age and ultimately was one, I would have had a much earlier introduction to the world of flannel shirts. However, 2010 will always be remembered fondly as the true beginning of my love affair with flannels. I knew I had a problem this morning when I realized that none of my ( Read more... )

I will not be one of those people who only talks about grad school. I will not be one of those people who only talks about grad school. I will not be one of those people who only talks about grad school ( Read more... )

The longer I've waited to write this, the more the words I had to describe my experience have gotten away. I recently decided to go back to school. I stumbled across randomly, and then choose, a low-residency option to get my Master's in Counseling Psychology. The program differs greatly from the typical online program in that every semester ( Read more... )

It's been a short eternity. I can't help that I have one million and two (if we're being exact) side projects that I've created for myself. That include but aren't limited to:

Being a graduate student
Making art
Making love
Youtubin'
Collabin' on Youtube
Making a website
Ukulele-ing
Playing Nintendo non-stop
Workin'
Leaving the "g" out of things ( Read more... )

I attempted to do this 30 day "meme" BS. First of all I hate the word "meme", and second: I thought it would help me write more, but instead I grew less and less interested about answering the questions and got little value out of it. I hope at least some of the people who read my journal, all 3 of you, gained some insight into my life or at least ( Read more... )

I understand the topic "a moment" could really lead you anywhere. Of course, the first thing that comes to mind are recent moments. Instead of writing about one, I'm going to reflect on several from this week ( Read more... )
