I no longer plan on updating this journal. If you're reading this and want to know what's going on in my life, you should call and ask me.

I have failed to fulfill 2 out of 4 goals so far this summer. I don't have the motivation to play my cello on a consistent schedule, and I never did go out to investigate free weights. Does anyone want to play music *with* me? If I'm not playing alone I'll be more apt to actually play and play for a longer period. Playing solo bores me. If ( Read more... )

All right, it's not a lifetime commitment, but it's a commitment. I started the job training today. There's a manual and assigned reading, a midterm and final, a lecture or two, and a lot of oral quizzing. Is this sounding like a class to you? 'Cuz it sounds a lot like a class to me. I don't mind it too much, I get paid for the training period ( Read more... )

The movie is friggen great. The progression of the characters, the unfolding story, the all-star cast (Cruise, Bacon, Demi Moore, Nicholson, Cuba Gooding Jr, Noah Wyle ( Read more... )

They told me to just drop by sometime between 9 and 5 today though, so I don't think it's anything important ( Read more... )

Now that I'm back at home, I want to be back at school. Its amazing how quickly I start missing that 3 hour parental buffer. I do appreciate the home-cooking a lot more than I used to though. The dining hall food wears at me, especially when they serve pork loin or meatloaf ( Read more... )

Just got back from my last final of my 2nd year at college. This means the year is finally over. About friggen time, its May f'in 26th. Sometimes I wonder if I would have been better off going to a college with a normal time schedule. But then I think about my friends here at UD, and any thought or regret about looking around at other colleges ( Read more... )

Get free weights and use them
Play cello
Get to the Bank of NY and fill out their paperwork
Cherish the air conditioning

That's my list of things to do. Did I forget anything?

"It's a beautiful sunny day with high's expected to be in the upper 80's to low 90's today, wind gusts up to 15 mph ( Read more... )
