Yup, after months of moaning about it not being available, I finally managed to see this wonderful film. I went after work today hoping it would be a nice distraction and it really was. For a whole hour and fourty-five minutes, and then maybe another ten as I walked home, I didn't think about anything at all other than the story playing out on ( Read more... )

I went to a seven hour character workshop today and really feel like I accomplished a lot. There were only five of us in the class so it gave us all time to read our in class writing exercises aloud and to discuss the various points of character development in the handout. We did several exercises throughout; I worked with one or two of the ( Read more... )

Two entries from me in one day?! I think the world might end! Well, I decided it was about time for another edition of "Things I Hate" so here you go ( Read more... )

Right, so I'm supposed to be working on a stupid and completely pointless assignment for school, but I just noticed that everyone on my friends list has this thing in their journal so I thought I'd fill it out too. Just because I know you're not all sick of it already ( Read more... )

We ended up having to go to the clinic yet again today and so I got home a little after noon. Gotta love short work days. :) So, rather than doing school work I thought I'd take a few minutes of my extra time to update this crazy journal. I finally figured out how to put up a picture, thanks to Lies for instructions and Tayryn for the pic ( Read more... )

I felt the need to update so I thought I'd write about my trip to the bookstore on Sunday. Not super exciting I know, but I do so love new books. :) I had a gift card my mom sent me a couple of months ago that I hadn't used yet, but I still managed to spend a huge amount of money there...oops. As soon as I walked in the door I was greeted with ( Read more... )

As most of you know, about a week ago I finally ordered a real bed. Well, it arrived today (before 2 as requested, how surprised was I). I had already rearranged the rest of the furniture to make room for it and it fit, woohoo. On the way home from class I stopped and bought a futon cover in navy blue to match my comforter and a second floor ( Read more... )

Be impressed. On Saturday, I read 12 articles and basically wrote the introduction to my masters thesis. Today I went through the notes and figures and turned it into a 5 page introducition and approximately a page of the proposed methods. The methods section probably needs a little work and I still have to meet with my advisor to make sure I ( Read more... )

I hate it when you walk into a hardware store and some kind of "woman alarm" goes off and they can't just leave you alone to find what you want. Someone immediately has to come over and ask what you're looking for and then hover while you pick it out. Are they trying to hurry you up so they don't get too much estrogen in the store or is it what I ( Read more... )
