Top Albums of 2010
When I first decided I was going to do a best-of list for 2010, I initially thought it was going to be easy. I figured that there were only about 10 albums that I listened to enough this past year to be able to rank and write a review. But now, as I sit with my list compiled, I feel as if my list is incomplete or missing albums. There are a ( Read more... ) -
Random Things Note
I was tagged in a few of these on Facebook and didn't really want to do it initially, but now I'm just trying to waste time. So here goes ( Read more... ) -
15 Albums
I’ve seen this meme floating around Facebook, so I decided to try it for myself. The prompt was to write down the 15 albums that influenced you and one way or another. I interpreted it as what I grew up listening to or what I was into at the time. I’ve never really been a lyrics-guy; I’ve always been more into the sound and production of records ( Read more... ) -
Knee Injuries, Floor Wars, Soccer Redemption, and a Partially Unrelated Trip to the ER
Thursday nights this quarter have been pretty lame for the most part. My schedule is only 4 days of school, and 3 days of weekend, starting thursday evening when my Econ professor (who is a grad student) lets the class out early because no one is paying attention. I feel really bad for her. The material is pretty boring, but not too difficult. ( Read more... ) -
Swinging Away in a New Quarter
I just found out that Pizza Club (aka Undergraduate Finance Association) doesn't start back up this quarter until next week. So, I gotta little bit of time on my hands. The new quarter started Monday, after a week off for spring break. Break ended up well. Andy came home Wednesday evening, so me, Andy, Katie, Will, and Smitty met up at the high ( Read more... ) -
Junior is a Junior
I'm sitting at home right now on spring break. I guess it's safe to say that last quarter ended better than expected. I managed to salvage a B- in Accounting after a 4 day study marathon and a good final test performance. I got a B in Astronomy after failing the first midterm, which wasn't that good, but really all I wanted was to get above a 3. ( Read more... ) -
Stuck in a Rut
This is gonna be choppy and stream-of-consciousness as always, so bear with me. I feel like I've been kinda stuck in a rut the past 2 or 3 weeks. Midterms have really been kicking my ass. Last quarter I had each of my midterms in the same week each time. While seeming very stressful, it really wasn't in retrospect. Either my studying was very ( Read more... ) -
Dream Interpretation
So ever since my grandmother died back in December, I've been having dreams about my other grandparents dying every so often. Most often are dreams about my grandfather, who is probably next in line to go. I think it was about a year ago when my family decided to abstain from surgery and let it all play out naturally. They weren't sure he was ( Read more... ) -
Stay Warm
Happy mid-January to everyone currently experiencing this round of brutal arctic cold. I've woken up the past 3 mornings to subzero temperatures, and boy I couldn't be any more thrilled. Of course, no one closes school when the wind chill is -20 to -40, that is, no one except every school not named Ohio State. I've also been told that my high ( Read more... )
