Famous people keep coming to talk to me! In my Environment in the Media class last night, George Stoney came to speak to us, and he was freaking awesome. Apparently he is like this famous documentary maker, I've never heard of him but I'm totally in to him based solely on the fact that he's 89 years old and he's just produced a documentary about ( Read more... )

I just got back from a field trip. It's like grade school only now I have to drive a suburban. The trip was with my Animal Behavior and Ecology class, we drove South to various spots in Minnesota for the day to look for Bald Eagles. We found them! We found 218 of them actually, plus three more close up ginormous ones at a refuge. Also we found ( Read more... )

Oh man. It's 40 degrees right now! and it's dark! Global Climate Change Global Climate Change! It feels really really springy here in Minnesota which is insane since it's January and temperatures should be in the low twenties or teens.

Today is a black day! black! black black black! everyone who is any good or interesting or nice or friendly has moved away, leaving lexi and raina and I lonely and forced to fend for ourselves in the wilderness of North Campus. It is only the first day of classes and already I feel very lonely and despair-ful. And woke up this morning from ( Read more... )

I know Italy's going to be amazing and everything and it'll be one of those experiences I remember forever and ever but right now I do NOT want to go! i don't want to pack or write a short paper or sleep for three hours before getting on a plane so I can re-pack and get on another plane and I DON'T want to go back to going to ( Read more... )

Yay I'm HOME!

Eeeep! I don'twannaIdon'twannaIdon'twanna! I hate this stupid final project! I hate final projects! I hate them but I can't even bash them because they really are such valid measures of skills but I have no skills, so I hate them even more! I want to go hoooooome! but first I want to go to the Trads concert and to the HolidazzleBazzle parade and ( Read more... )

Mmmm so, I'm at work right now, and I kind of feel like a bad person for updating. There's so much stuff I could be doing, like writing a list of questions for tutoring on Tuesday, making phone calls, sending e-mails, planning site visits, even slacking off by doing class readings but I just don't wanna! Usually I love my job so much, but today ( Read more... )

Oh MAN I just got beaten about the face by my ecology test. Would have used more conventional "just got raped by my ecology test" but will never ever use that phrase again after uber awkward van trip to lab research station in which Caty described being raped by a test and awkward lab professor randomly interjected "rape's not fun for anyone."
