Alright kids. Things are starting to go pretty smoothly around here. The room is mine (after 2 background checks & fees) and I move in tomorrow. I made offers on a bed, desk & chair, TV, computer monitor and probably something else to pick up tomorrow. I'm registered for classes and can pay in thirds. I set up a bank account tomorrow & start ( Read more... )

I'm reviewing all the math that I learned 10-15 years ago for my placement test tomorrow so that I can sign up for classes, and I'm suddenly reminded of why I went into fine arts. Seriously, maybe I SHOULD just paint murals in rich people's houses ( Read more... )

Rushmore. The trip so far has been brought ( Read more... )

Damn. My music-snobbery just took a huge hit.

Turns out it's fucking My Chemical Romance. I feel like I should buy a ( Read more... )

Alright. Chick #1 is taking the apartment as of June 1st. 2 weeks notice has been given, last day is next Saturday the 27th, whereupon we will be having a party at Erica's house. I intend to drink ridiculously so that I can give everyone big sloppy goodbye hugs and grab their asses. Hey, it's what I do ( Read more... )
