So random... I got admitted to NYU... again... Apparently they accidentally sent admissions letters to everyone (or a fair amoutn of people) who got admitted last year (or at least in the College of Arts and Sciences). I don't know if anything else happened, but if that's all that happened they are so lucky- I mean of all the admissions related ( Read more... )

Wow. I can't believe I'm done with a year of college already, and I can't believe it was so amazing. I can't believe the people I met and the friends I made and how much I took for granted. I love Columbia and I love the people there and I literally can not describe how looking back on this year makes me feel. Which sounds cheesy and dumb, but I ( Read more... )

So basically here's what happened. Tuesday it was really windy at sailing practice and everyone was underprepared cause it was a nice day out.

Yay! I'm now officially Wilderness First Aid & CPR certified. That means if you get hurt in the wild, I can help you. Isn't that great? I can perform CPR anywhere though. So if you die, it doesn't have to be in the wild and I can do CPR. But, on COBOP (bike trip) because we ride mostly on the road or near it, if anyone got seriously injured we'd ( Read more... )

Perhaps I have made an error in judgment. So... the other day (Friday) I'm playing ultimate frisbee and I make an amazing catch, but when I stand up from said catch (and rolling around w/teammate celebrating) I realize I'm bleeding, somewhat profusely, from my knee. So I play another point and then seeing as my entire leg is covered in blood, head ( Read more... )

Saw sin city last night... i don't think i've ever been so... disgusted in my life. it was soooo gory i watched like 20 minutes of it. but it was good. i would recommend it to a friend... or someone i really didn't like...

if i had a dollar for every time i didn't #include a fucking header file that i needed and then proceeded to spend >1 hour trying everything i can think of to fix the problem, i would have a good amount of dollars. at least 2 from tonight alone. i miss java... i hate c...
