Yes, today is international stuttering awareness day. Pretty freaking cool right?

I bet you wish you had a speech dysfleuncy that had an awareness day for it.

In honor of this fabulous awareness day I thought I'd spread the awareness via the handout I made last year. Read it if you like, my thinking is that every time I get to teach someone about ( Read more... )

So apparantly unless you apply early action to Bridgewater you aren't guaranteed housing because there's more kids wanting housing than dorms...so apparantly I'm applying early now. I have to go see Ms Sylvester tomorrow and warn her. Ugh.

And the college essays attack sooner than I would have hoped.

Now some of you might remember me mentioning my identity box for Facing History, well on Wednesday we had a test on the identity boxes. Each person had to write out on an index card for each person in the class (except for themself) #1 - something they have in common with the person, and #2 - something they admire about the person. Today we got our ( Read more... )

Clearly I'm a mess ( Read more... )

I don't know how I manage to suck SO MUCH at being productive and accomplishing things. This weekend I guess was kind of sucky. I did college stuff so that was good but I've hardly done any homework and its already 11pm! I took a very nice long bath, that was good, I'm clean. That's good. But yeah, I suck ( Read more... )

I think my cell phone might be broken. When I try to call someone or answer the phone I can't hear anything on my end -- so if I put it on speakerphone I can hear but I don't intend on going around talking on my speaker phone all the time. I guess if I found my headset maybe I could plug that in and then that'd work. My phone was working earlier ( Read more... )

So it's Tuesday. In two days we go back to school. And today's my last day working before school starts -- then once school starts I'm tenitively working Fridays 3-9 and Sundays 12-6. We'll see what happens. Yesterday when I was writing in my journal about the start of school I was thinking about all the random good assorted things about going back ( Read more... )

As I mentioned last night/early this morning, I finished reading The Stranger by Albert Camus! Woo! It was pretty good, I don't know if it's the kind of good that I want to read again or just the kind of good that was good because it was so incredibly easy and quick to read. Either way it's just exciting that I finished my third (of five) summer ( Read more... )

Abby leant me The Stranger by Albert Camus to read since it's on the summer reading list and is pretty short and I'm enjoying it actually except I'm annoyed because my tooth hurts and it's distracting me from my ability to read. It's really bothersome actually. All I want to do is have a summer reading - aton because I pretty much have to and stay ( Read more... )
