Hello internet surfers ( Read more... )

I've had a fun few days. Backwards, in time ( Read more... )

I'm back from Spain and have been for 2 weeks, if you're unaware. That was fun fun fun. I had a hotel room with 2 fun roommates that had a balcony overlooking tree-lined Las Ramblas, right near the Catalunya Metro stop, exactly where we wanted to be. The hotel had a few weird quirks, but the location (and free drinks in a freezer next to reception ( Read more... )

Oh. My. Gosh.
I just sent in my final paper for Ec 192. Yes, that paper that I whined to you about days/weeks/months ago. Worst conclusion ever...but it's okay. Because the last 9 days of my vacation will be full of true freedom.

I am leaving for the airport for Spain in...oh, 7 hours.
I'll update when I'm back on this side of the pond. Hasta

I had an amazing New Year's Eve in New York City. Everything made me happy last night (especially after the wine and champagne) from bumping into Sara and Justin on the platform on the way in, to bumping into Jesse at the track for the way home. I loved the blue noisemaker and the half-price subway and watching Abby and Christina doll up and the ( Read more... )

Because it was Christmas today, me and my sister did our 2nd Annual Jews 4 Chinese Food and A Movie outing. We saw The Family Stone - light enough material for a matinee, but I could've done without the sappy and unrealistic stuff at the end. Sadly, my throat started hurting early today (and I mean early - had to drive the folks to JFK at 6:45am). ( Read more... )

It's astounding how much cleaning I will do when I have work to be doing.

Quicky update: 8AM and still awake. Garbage trucks are clanking outside. My brain is so active that I'm not even tired. We got kicked out of Eaton at 4 and had to come here to work on my laptop - which was worse because we (read: I) had to debate and argue every change we (I) made because the other could see it. I can admit in my own damn journal ( Read more... )

It's 2:48 AM and I have been in our computer lab, save for a 45 minute dinner break, for 13+ hours straight. I think my partner and I are not leaving 'til we're done with our 20-odd page paper on factors contributing to Minority-Owned Business Success, complete with tables and graphs from our Stata results, so I might as well get back to work.

I am so proud of me for picking and nearly booking the hotel us 25 musicians are staying in in Barcelona. Too bad the payment has to go through Bitchy McBitchister, this horrid woman in the Music Department who gave me attitude earlier today when I simply introduced myself and asked her if she had booked flights for 4 of the people ( Read more... )
