I got a 164.  I'm going to GWU.

So yesterday I turned 22.  It was weird, I feel old.  It was the first birthday that have not been counting down to since October or so.  I better start buying the cats soon.  Dee bought me kitty collars for my birthday, I'm excited.  Last night, I went out with Dee, Joe and Yvonne - good friends and a free margarita the size of my head, what more ( Read more... )

Thanksgiving was relaxing.  I enjoyed being home, which is as of the last few years unusual.  I thought it would be a boring week, but it ended up without a dull moment.  I spent a lot of time with Dee, who I've missed dearly and Jess Norton who I haven't seen in a long time.  I also spent a lot of time with my mom, baking pies and going grocery ( Read more... )

Comet is deteriorating more and more with each passing day, and I am sad.  Today I came home from a Plattsburgh visit and found a whole bone on the living room floor.  Comet, the dog with the never ending stomach, the dog that daily broke into the pantry to sneak wishbones, no longer has any desire for treats.  Her eyes are filled with so much ( Read more... )

Long time no update.  Life has been so crazy lately, I've had no time to myself.  I cancelled the lsats until Dec. 2nd, so I have more time to relax now, and I'm not taking it for granted.  I'm thinking more seriously about taking a year off to come down here to work/get settled in before starting law school.

My internship at NOW is going well.  I ( Read more... )

My internship at NOW hasn't exactly turned out to be what I expected, but in a good way.  I've come to realize that my previous conception of the oldest and most reputable organization that fights for women's rights, founded by Betty Friedan, Gloria Stienham, and other big shots of the 2nd wave feminist movement, was very much overblown.  It's a ( Read more... )

I've only been in D.C. since Tuesday, but I already know I'm never going to want to leave.  There's so much to do here, and everything is so accessible.  I live way out in Alexandira, Virginia, in a suburb, which sits directly on a metro stop, so the city is never more than a 20-minute train ride away.  D.C. has so much culture, history and ( Read more... )

I've been neglecting my LJ for the summer.  Oh dear.  I'll try to make this short and sweet ( Read more... )

My parents have finally jumped on the high speed internet bandwagon, at least partially by getting roadrunner "light".  Kudos to them for entering the 20th century.  Maybe in the next 20 years or so, when the next internet innovation sweeps the country, they'll spring for the full thing.  Hey, a girl can only hope ( Read more... )
