perfect last weekend of school (!). I think I am in denial- four more days? that is so icky. and exciting. but mostly icky. Bri's 2 day birthday extravaganza was absolutely lovely- the food was delish and B got such good pressies (95% of which had something to do with her current Asian obsession ( Read more... )

Even though this is on Megan's LJ, I had to put it in here because it just captures her essence (remember when we were all obsessed with essences and drew them in art all the time?) (remember when MEGAN and BRIDGET were in IB Art ( Read more... )

It's funny how reading other people's LJs can conjure lovely thoughts and memories. Case in point ( Read more... )

En route to school, I encountered Kels, who informed me that the Spanish IV kids were doing presentations and Spanish VI didnt have to come today. So now I am sprawled out on my floor with my fab new heating pad soaking up the cozyness of a rainy morning. I tried to be productive and work on TOK, but now I've decided I don't want to do Neitzsche ( Read more... )

It is so unbelievably gorgeous outside right now I don't know what to do. I'm sitting on the deck writing and sunning (even though I've vehemently sworn to wear SPF45 for the entire summer in an effort to stave off an untimely death and wrinkles...) I really want to bring my easel out here and paint, but I know that by the time I schlep everything ( Read more... )

Today megan stopped by and we read the paper, which led to the invention of a really fun game. It's called "Make up the best horse name." Here is the list we've compiled thus far- there's sure to be a future Triple Crown winner in it's midst ( Read more... )

Buzick just told me that my latest entry was v. unsettling to her, for unidentifiable reasons. After rereading it I can vaguely understand it. I think my rapic consumption of food altered my personality impercetibly. I would just like to announce that I am back to normal and that I didn't mean to frighten you, Hannah darling ( Read more... )

IB exam season is officially over. done. never again. Part of me is relieved, yet I am already feeling a twinge of nostaligia. I feel an odd attachment to IB documents- I really love the font and convoluted wording. They look almost Sovietesque. Or European. Or something. It's just much lovlier than all of the ugly things we get written in bubbly ( Read more... )

Why is it that I am so horrible at studying? I made myself a darling little study nook on the floor with organized piles of information and a hot cup of tea. Now the tea is gone, the depression makes me depressed and I can't keep the Mexican revolutionaries straight. UGH. I am going to be so relieved tomorrow when the tests are over. It's too bad ( Read more... )

After reading for THE ENTIRE DAY, I have finished Love Medicine (!). It was better the first time around. Reread all my old journals (discoverd that I did not make sufficient use of spellcheck, and that I went through a wierd period in Native Son Journal 2 where i said "in effect" at least twice per question. wierd.) and perused SparkNotes at ( Read more... )
