I am seriously lazy in the journal dept. Things are going well though currently. Went back to MI for the holidays, having no car I realized it might be possible to actually die of boredom. Thankfully though my case wasn't fatal and back to sunny Miami I went. It was so good to see my family again, my brother is doing really awesome so I'm happy. He ( Read more... )

Wednesday I'm leaving Miami to visit home. I haven't been back since the day I moved in June ( Read more... )

Yesterday I smiled at one of my neighbors. He just looked at me like he hated me. It's hit or miss down here. Usually I don't feel like I fit in. It doesn't bother me too much but it does make it all the more hard to choke down the feeling of wanting to go back home. I don't know if I want to be here. But I'm also not sure there's anywhere I wouldn ( Read more... )

I made a culinary discovery today. I made a turkey and provolone panini using my Foreman grill. Sure, to some it may have appeared to be a glorified grilled cheese sammich but to me it was a culinary breakthrough. Warm and toasty with little grill marks on top, it loved me and I loved it back. I need more ideas for paninis. Typing that word reminds ( Read more... )

I have serious procrastination problems when it comes to packing. Sure I've got plenty of boxes but I'm hoping they will pull a disney magic move and pack themselves... singing songs about penguins or something. I've got a lot of shit for such a tiny place. I guess the big midget closet kept it out of my eyesight until surprise! look at all your ( Read more... )

I think I have a terrible memory. I'm not sure though since I don't have anyone else's memory in my head to compare it to. I like how can just delete a number from my phone and consequently delete them from my mind. I like buttons... relief buttons. Comforting to press... Emails are gone with one click, my history can even be cleared in my browser ( Read more... )

I have a problem. Well some say I'd have more than one, but this is pressing on my life and has been for a long time. I'm sure most people reading this know the Ben story. Sometimes I still look at his picture. Mostly it doesn't bother me, it's as if looking at a vaguely familiar stranger. But rarely, especially if coldplay happens to be playing in ( Read more... )

I got a job offer today. Good pay, benefits, tuition reimbursement (I want my masters), pretty decent. Job is in Toledo, OH. I guess all my hard work paid off. :) Now I just gotta figure out what to do. It would be really nice having it all lined up before I go off to Europe. Much less stress for me and lately, stress has been killing me. Then I ( Read more... )

I feel like I've won a prize or something. I got my rebate from my student loan. Too bad it took me till last semester senior year to figure out what the hell a refund was. I guess that's a good thing though because I kept the debt level low. But now this makes things a lot easier on me. Working 30 hrs a week with a full credit load was making me ( Read more... )

Today was my first day at the gym. I went with my Mom at 8am. After we stretched, she showed me how to use all the machines she uses in her routine. I also did some cardio on the treadmill and some stair climber thing. I worked with free weights too, they have a mirror which I like because I can see what my arms are doing (probably they're crying ( Read more... )
