In four years of Harvard, only now do I finally meat my first royal! Prince Amar (something) of India. I certainly didn't peg him for royalty (the modesty of Harvard students in appearance and action is incredible, and the exact opposite fo the stereotype of arrogance everyone gives us). I was trying to understand why he, who lives in England, ( Read more... )

Most of my proctees are in. One is sick and will arrive in a week.

Already some fun stories. One has officially nicknamed me "Jesus" in honor of my long hair, full goatee, and leather sandals. I may have to get a bathrobe just to complete the illusion.

What else? Many odd stories, but none spring to mind. Will keep posted (hopefully)

My mom found my black Praying Mantis T-shirt! I am elated! I am also stuffed from a meal at Uno's: I am back at Harvard square, and starting proctoring. I have to deal with high school sophs. Bad. But I will be able to do all the cool field trips, since i've learned the secret: go to the starting place, and wait for the no-shows and take their ( Read more... )

What a nice day one of commencement... although i wish i had a water bottle under my gown. It was hot! Everyone was so dehydrated by the time we got to Mem Church that people were coughing symphonies ( Read more... )

On my way to return some DVD's, I saw Mike and some other Adamsians in swim trunks, undershirts, and similar looking small towels heading for the river. I quickly guessed what it was and tagged along: they were heading for the bridge to jump! Nice! I had just showered otherwise I would have considered swimming with them, but probably wouldn't jump ( Read more... )

Yeah, yeah, I know I was supposed to stop, but today was a great day! A capstone end to Senior Week. The senor olympics were today, but i didn't participate. I did come for the senior barbecue. The food was good, but what was great was chatting with my old, soph. fall roomates again! It was cool, we reminisced about old times and such. Remember ( Read more... )

I've finally copied my whole 4 year's worth of livejournal entries into a microsoft word file, to be printed eventually and dropped into the archives. Let it be known throughout the galaxy: I keep my fucking word! I said i'd do it, and I did it ( Read more... )

Well, my roomates left for home today. i've still got 2 weks here. It's very lonely! I feel so sad I could cry. I don't like being by myself. This is why having a single would be unpleasant for me. At least there are senior week events for me, starting wednesday ( Read more... )

The mac closed early, and Lev gym is full of furniture and such, so I decided to go swim in the Charles! Got 4 laps from shore to shore (one lap=one way across, right? Otherwise 2). Then i went up on the bridge where some dudes were jumping off Weeks Footbridge, which I was meaning to do at some point. One charismatic redhead convinced me to jump. ( Read more... )

Well, I did it! All eight primal screams. A pity the spring one is so poorly attended, it made it anti-climactic. Ah well, it was still fun. And i'm glad I did it ( Read more... )
