I love my family, extended and immediate, but on occassion, being forced into their company is enough incentive for me to take a power tool to my temple. I have this theory about why family vacations take places on cruises and I'm pretty sure it's because if you're on a boat, you can't escape.

I think I need a new hobby. The Archipelago exhibit ( Read more... )

When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful
Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart
And when she was sad, I was there to dry her tears
And when she was happy, so was i, when she loved me.

Through the summer and the fall, we had each other, that was all
Just she and I together, like it was meant to be
And when she was lonely, I was there ( Read more... )

Where is this love? I can't see it, I can't touch it. I can't feel it. I can hear it. I can hear some words, but I can't do anything with your easy words.

I love being home. This is most likely due to the fact that I've seen my boyfriend every day since returning, but it's nice to be back in DC anyways :) Over the past few days I've caught up with many of my good friends, though a few have yet to return. I set up a part-time summer job (on the first try too!) which should be different yet ( Read more... )

Home at last. It's so strange not being constantly surrounded by a bunch of my close friends 24/7. Finally I'm reminded why I hate being an only child. At least I have my smelly little doggy to keep me company. The rain makes me slighly depressed though, its not quite the "welcome home" weather I was hoping for. At least most people come back this ( Read more... )

This morning as I walked over to the music school to drop off my papers, the skies opened up in a massive downpour which soaked me to my skin. I've always loved thunder storms, especially the feeling of being inside in a cozy room while all hell is going on outside your window. As I walked back to my dorm, I had a moment of zen. The Verve's "Lucky ( Read more... )

WHO'S DONE WITH THEIR FRESHMAN YEAR OF COLLEGE?

Yep. That would be me.

Tonight has been rather dramatic sadly, considering it was following a very pleasant day. I'm positive that I destroyed my final this morning. Nothing beats having an hour and a half to finish an exam and walking out thirty minutes into it with the whole day ahead of you... to study psychology. I'm not even that worried about the exam tomorrow, ( Read more... )

...and the date keeps moving forward! By noon on May 7th, I will be back in the DC metro area. No more school or St Louis! Despite the two exams this week and the two papers next week, life could not be more pleasant. I think I've somehow become goofier lately, perhaps to fulfill my own weirdness quota. So here I am, listening to Abbey Road (which ( Read more... )
