Today, on the eve of loosing my teenager status, I shall finally update my journal. Which isn't saying much since there is no way that I can cram 2 months worth of activities in without making an novel. Thus, I shall summarize with a word by word list like format ( Read more... )

I feel the need to update....however nothing much is going on. Quite the dilema. (It took 3 tries to spell 'dilema', maybe I do need some school to keep myself updated. Ah, no. I think I can handle it). Lifeguarding is just as exciting as it ever was but the getting up early things has gotten so much easier. I'm impressed with myself. But I do go ( Read more... )

I hate people! This is an unfortunate phrase used all to often by me. I was going to remove it from my vocabulary this summer but....I can't do it! People are stupid and people with children are the worst. The End!

This shall be my retrospective account on the first week home. Here it goes: NOTHING!!! I gloriously did nothing that was required of me (except 3 hours of lifeguarding). And it was amazing!! Visited Laurenza at Cornell with La Stephanie which was absolutely what I needed. Then a...oh...10 min visit to Lowe's with the same chicas. This goes on ( Read more... )

I need to watch Marx Brothers. That song has been in my head since 6:15 this morning. Which is ridiculous. I almost burst into song during the lovely preformance of 'I know why the caged bird sings' that I was in. The two themes don't really match up though....hmmm ( Read more... )

....the UNI Men's Glee Club appears! This concert was amazing. I'd forgotten how much I missed music other than cello practicing. Impossible Dream = Amazing! An impromptu Bridge Over Troubled Water = even better ( Read more... )

I'm back from Nebraska Take 2 aka Spring Break Take 3 with a little more school work thrown in. Bonding time with Fossils and Evolution classmates was amazing. There was a little trouble with the whole "peer" issue being that most of them are 22-26 and graduating but hey, it was still fun. I often wonder where the UNIians are that are my age. It's ( Read more... )

My hands smell like opera. And it won't come out. Soap, lotion, Febreeze. Nada. Funnily enough, I worked for a total of 2 hours though I was there for 9 hours. And my hands still retain the opera smell. Perhaps playing cards and telling jokes makes the smell stick. Who knows? If anyone cares to summarize the third act of Marrige of Figaro I would ( Read more... )

I have developed a new term: helicopter birds. This refers to the birds that fly directly into the wind and flap and flap yet go nowhere. Like a hovering helicopter. See? Helicopter birds ( Read more... )

1: the concept of a HAM (hypothetical ancestral mollusk). There is a genera of mollusk that was predicted to exist long before it was actually discovered. and HAM is what they called it before it was found in a rock somewhere and given a long and rather silly latin name that is difficult to pronouce. The world should have just left it at ham ( Read more... )
