So these aren't exactly a new thing.  Last year Community experienced a couple flare-ups, notably JPham, and one later on about race and PCness and ignorance and privilege.  But this one is slightly different in that 1) it's (mostly) on Wellesley FML, and 2) it targets one very specific person ( Read more... )

One of my major problems with communication is that I can't really say what I'm thinking a lot of the time.

( The problem )

First of all, Glee this week = ACKSPGFL *squee*  THEY FINALLY KISSED.  AND ARE ACTUALLY DATING INSTEAD OF SORT-OF-PRETENDING-TO-DATE.  THIS MAKES ME SO INCREDIBLY HAPPY.  Though I'm not sure what this says about me--I usually have no tolerance for this kind of shoujo-y drama romance crap.  XD  Kurt and Blaine are just too adorable, though, with the ( Read more... )

On the one hand, this is hell week.  Two midterms, a project, and a paper due within the next three days; another chunk of our CS project due a week from tomorrow.  Funfunfun.

I had a feeling when I woke up today that it would be a good day, and I think I was right.  During daytime we did our own things; I worked on cosplay for maybe half an hour (at this point, Kazuki needs some work on the below-the-knee part--which I probably can't do alone, since it involves setting hem length--and also requires my deciding how I'm ( Read more... )

Tory posted this on facebook and...well, I have to say, it's one of the most purely honest things I've seen come out of Harvard, just about ever.  Or out of any college writing.  Or really out of any public, published writing.

It's all about how we all stress and don't sleep and ( Read more... )

Academics for the week:

Astronomy: pset due today (assigned a week ago), midterm Thursday.
Computer Science: homework assignment due Friday, midterm next week.

Italian: Whole workbook.  Watch a whole movie.  Read ( Read more... )
