Looking back at the year that has passed, suddenly it becomes apparent to me that I give my gun away when it's loaded.

I returned from Germany/Italy a few days ago, but as many of you know, I didn't accomplish half the stuff I set out to accomplish for winter break. Meaning, I have been applying to grad school since I returned, which explains my complete absence from the world for so long. Sorry about that, I was shocked when I opened my itunes today to realize ( Read more... )

It seems to me that everybody is inherently lonely, but different people have different ways of dealing with it. What does a new year bring for us anyway? I don't see how a new year can be new in any way when leopards don't change their spots ( Read more... )

I am in Germany now! Had a damn tiring flight that stretched from Saint Louis to Detroit, then to Amsterdaml-Schiziphol (I got another amsterdam chop on my passport!) and finally to frankfurt (honestly, it was ugly and terrible). Just left Heidelberg and arrived at Karlsruhe to meet up with Siwei. We are going to a new year party of his german ( Read more... )

i'm in nashville now and unexpectedly received a ton of xmas presents and had superb meals and hanging out with nicole and linda and felix, and the best thing is, I went to an old shop and bought 4 2nd hand vinyl records of the sound of music, lipps inc, simon and garfunkel and abba!

The weather forecast said that there would be 8inches of snow last night, with sleet and all those stuff. I thought that was pretty awesome, especially when the dean sent me an email cancelling my night immunology class and another classmate for my neurophysiology discussion called me to cancel our discussion cos she was worried about me driving on ( Read more... )

mexico is freaking awesome (and dangerous)! seat belts do not have buckles, no one stops when it´´s the red light, people sell oyster shell powder as a whitener (yes, not the pearl but the shell!), and people actually understand my spanish. *gasps*
alritey, off to a jazz concert now. I am safe so don´t worry for me. Take care my frens!

I am currently writing my last philosophy paper in my life on anomalous monism. Aaarrgggh... I will be leaving for mexico after a class tomorrow and will be back in around a week's time. I can't believe that I have a paper due each day after I return for 3 consecutive days. And I haven't started on any of them ( Read more... )
