Okay, so I accessed my Livejournal for the first time in like, ages, because I started a Book of Quotes thingy on Writing-Dot-Com to keep track of all the funny shit you guys have said throughout the ages (you can see what's been entered so far here:  Quotes) Anyway, I was looking at my bright red journal background, and I realized something: that ( Read more... )

Wow, my first entry in like, three years.

Well, things are okay. My midterm grade for Geo-Lab is a 97, and if the only thing on the Geo-lecture grade is the one test, that grade is an 88. I'm hoping for a B in AVT, but the way this phase of the project is looking, I'll be lucky. Though, who knows? I may figure this out.

I have spontaneously acheived access to the MSNBC news clips. Chris Mattews, Tucker, and my dear sweet Keith Olbermann are now at my fingertips twenty-four hours a day. What Joy!

Ah, geology! The time for the testing was today, and that time was brief and sweet, sweet like the taste of victory on a warm summer's eve. In other words, the test went well.

And so my little crush on the RA goes un-anything-at-all-ed. I can't tell if there is a chance, or none at all. I guess I could always ASK him, but after what happened with Sean, I don't want to risk losing another friend. Chris is a good guy, and I don't want to freak him out. Even if the bastard IS a year ahead and two months behind me. Grrrrrrr ( Read more... )

I just paid $419 for a kit that has the latest versions of Photoshop, Illustrator, and various other Adobe products.

So I'm looking for a job, and what do you know, but the Patriot JobWeb is a load of crap that helps very little. I thought it was supposed to help one fill out their first resume, but surprise! You have to UPLOAD the document (at least I think so . . . while you're filling out the profile the last stage is to "Upload Documents" and you can't ( Read more... )

It's so sad; this guy was one of the biggest names in natural conservation and study. And to be killed by a stingray! It's crazy.

Ah, Steve. You will be missed.
