I moved into a new apartment last week. It's a one bedroom apt. in a condo in Foggy Bottom. I actually have a roommate (housemate? apartment-mate?) who is a 1L law student at GW. With the whole one bedroom thing, she gets the bedroom and my room is actually the living room. Plenty of space, but alas, no door. No worries though - I ordered some ( Read more... )

So, I need a place to live. I'm looking for a place in D.C., preferably in a neighborhood where I won't get shot. In terms of price, $1000 a month is as high as I go. I'd like to move into a place with people around my age, or at least people who would like to hang out every once in while, grab a beer together, etc. I don't smoke, but I don't mind ( Read more... )

Clothes have a lifespan. You buy a shirt one day, wear it once every 10 days or so, for five years straight. Then eventually it gets to the point where you just can't wear it anymore.

That comes from The Monk Downstairs a pretty crappy book I just finished reading. The book does have a few good quotes in it about life, love, God, contemplation, etc. etc., such as the quote ( Read more... )

So I'm getting a car as a graduation present! Family friends who are going overseas for a few years are selling their car (Toyota Camry) to us. That car will go to my sister, and I will get my sister's car (a Taurus). My sister's car (the Taurus) has a pretty low re-sale value anyway, so it might as well just go to me. I'm really excited about it. ( Read more... )

Closure. Closure. Close ur eyes.

What an interesting concept. Can I do it for all of them all at once? Gather them in a room, or in a weekend and hug awkwardly and walk forward along the sidewalk like its some kind of road to the future. Sutures for the future.
