one minute, on the sea.
I start work this week? What? It should be among the more interesting first days of work I've ever had, to be honest. Training is on Wednesday, and as of right now we have no staff besides Katee and I, no uniforms, and we haven't filled out our paperwork or contracts. Since we have two booths to run, there will be no one to give us breaks. This is ( Read more... ) -

I'm pretty sure it would be impossible to even attempt to coherently express my feelings about the Lost season finale.
So I'm not even going to try. -

Lost finale begins in an hour and 34 minutes. THE SUSPENSE WILL KILL ME. I hope Richard is in every scene (yeah this won't happen, but a girl's gotta dream) and lots of confused!Ben, because that's adorable ( Read more... ) -
of cliffs and russian.
Summer is a success so far. I have a job that's going to pay better than any I've ever had, as well as become my life for the next few months. I've been running almost every day. I'm going to start swimming as soon as I buy a new bathing suit, since mine seems to have gotten lost in the process of moving home.
I also had the most wonderful day a ( Read more... ) -

My jaw just about hit the floor when I got my physical anthro grade, as I had been expecting at most a C. In our 200 question final, I'd estimate that I guessed about 150 of ( Read more... ) -
summer at last, happiness!
Hello summer! Yesterday I turned in my last essay for the semester, for Chinese and Western Poetry, and afterwards took my last final (Russian) (and yes, I had ANOTHER Saturday final, because whoever comes up with the finals schedules hates the Russian department). I then walked over to Rita's to buy some celebratory gelato, came home, and took a ( Read more... ) -
peppermint tea and grass
The end of this gone-to-crap semester is imminent. All that separates me from glorious summer is a Russian oral exam (today), one essay (easy), and my Russian final (eh). Yesterday at the lovely time of 8 am, I took my Physical Anthropology final. I will not be surprised in the least if I failed it, even though I don't see how I could have been ( Read more... ) -
hylobatids and russian verbal aspect.
Lovely! Am studying for two exams tomorrow - Russian and Physical Anthropology. For the latter, I have about 12 single-spaced pages full of notes to memorize, along with names of bones and things in the skull and such. Have decided to take a much-needed break to relax and refuel with some tea.
New music! (oh it makes me so happy) The Decemberists ( Read more... ) -

Lately, my days have been filled with tea, Tom Waits, russian, cold weather, static electricity. I found an old microscope in my basement, and played a few notes on a light-up organ. My mom made egg salad. I started playing my flute again. I'm currently in a search for a cheap turntable and speakers, and a keyboard. It's snowing buckets. My face is ( Read more... ) -
