Today was my first day of class and I attended a philosophy class entitled "contemporary moral issues. The homework is literally almost impossible and has taken two hours so far, but I feel fucking brilliant whenever I do something right, and the rewarding sense I'm getting almost makes up for the fact that I could, at this moment, be hitting on ( Read more... )

I'm finally here, at the dreaded Miami University in Oxford, OH. I bitched the whole day and wasn't very nice to my parents. I cried when they dropped me off, and I'm ashamed of the fuss I made, even if it's wrong of them to be making me stay here ( Read more... )

Well, it's actually only almost my last day of school. And I still have to study for chem and math, which equal hell on earth, I don't have to go to school during the second week of exams and I can sleep and start on my summer reading list and basically be a huge bum until summer gym starts.

It's official. I got my letter of acceptance yesterday, and I tried really hard not to cry. Six weeks at Miami University this summer. My parents are really proud of me and excited. Somehow I can't bring myself to share their joy. I leave June 26th and I don't get to come home for another two weeks after the program ends due to family vacation and ( Read more... )

School sucks. I really hate putting in the effort. I think the general concensus among juniors is that we should be seniors, and not trying in school any more. I'm tired of homework and tests and SAT shit and looking at colleges and worrying about summer ( Read more... )

Prom, Prom, Prom. It was good. Our group was kind of cracked out. Some of us literally. Pictures were much less awkward than originally anticipated. Always a plus. Everyone cleaned up nicely and looked wonderful in their formal wear. I've gotten my digital pictures uploaded onto my comp, so if only I can figure out how to get them on here... The ( Read more... )
