But which one is the real Beyonce?!?
It's been snowing on and off all weekend, not enough to stick, but enough to fill my head with James Joyce. I want more more more. If it's going to be winter (which I hate) it should at least snow (which I love).
(1) I'm totally not engaged yet with this semester yet (my last!!), which I know because it's a month in and I still can't remember which ( Read more... ) -
Escarmouches! (Was a word that I had written here in a draft for no reason I can recall.)
I've had an astounding revelation about why I'm so stressed and frantic and busy all the time. I take a really long time to get things done. All things. Emailing, homework, getting dressed. All the time. No wonder I can only ever get halfway through my to do list. See also: why I'm always running late, even though I super hate being late.

It's going to be gone soon. / I know. / What do we do? / ... Enjoy it.
I'm cleaning out the front room. Part of the deal with getting reduced rent for the amazing and giant upstairs apartment was that we'd be responsible for getting rid of all my landlady's old things, from when she used to live here years ago and the time since while she's been renting it as a furnished apartment: big things like furniture, but also ( Read more... ) -
Décembre.
Whoa, new LJ iPhone app! Who knew they'd ever upgrade it. Or how long ago they did, since it's not like I ever look at it.
Today I walked from campus over to the French embassy with a couple of my classmates and half the French professors in the department. We had lunch in the cafeteria there: five kinds of cheese and crusty bread and un verre du ( Read more... ) -
He is looking off. Away. At something far. “Ocean,” he says.
It was a good weekend. Friday I left my internship early for an on-campus briefing about this spring's upcoming oral exams (ack), then stayed around for an event on public-private partnerships in the cocoa sector, and then a trivia night for my program ( Read more... ) -
There’s a black man in power with nothing to lose.
Stolen from lowriseflare, because if I have to do another second of homework every cell in my body will explode but I have two more group meetings on campus tonight before I can go home and die:
So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious but you have no idea about, or something obscure you just have ( Read more... ) -
And the air is colder.
I meant to write an LJ post about school way back when it started in August, and here it's already October, which I know because my bloodstream is at least 35% honey crisp. Fall! So here are some updates:
[+] School: ( We could all have been killed - or worse, expelled! ) -
Look at the sky: that is for you.
My goal is to have a working draft of my big internship report done by today. So obvs here I am updating my livejournal. I had a breakthrough the other day about why it's been so hard to write, and it's because I'm simultaneously trying to write A Very Professional Sounding report and something that can be read by people with low English-literacy ( Read more... ) -
You ought to give me wedding rings.
At this point I've built Writing A Wedding Post up in my head to such epic proportions that it seems impossible, so instead I'm just going to write about it for a little while until I get bored, and then maybe post more about it later ( Read more... )
