SOREBACKATRON BLOG UPDATE:I have been planting trees for nine days, and have put over 20,000 trees in the ground. My back hurts, my feet are swollen and I have more black fly bites than I care to count, but I AM ONE HAPPY LITTLE ROBOT. The fresh air, sunshine and dirty hands, are such a contrast to how I spent my winter months (hunched over ( Read more... )

So much happenin' I don't know where to start with the updating. Today, (the sunshinest, warmest day we've had yet!) is my 23rd burfday. EeeKeekeEK! I'm havin' the krezziest week - mad crazy errand-running, packing up my schtuff, ripping MP3s, sweating and bendytime, paperwork, sleeping in, cartoons and cooking... I can't believe I leave in 4 days ( Read more... )

Hours n' hours of trance dance, sweat and mind-explodey techno brillance, a badass house party and the greatest sleep I've had in months, I had potentially the bestest weekend of the year last weeekend. Saw a whole bunch of my robot space warriors <3, which is wikkid cuz I'm running out of time before I take off for the bush for a few months. ( Read more... )

it is distinctly possible
that songs for the deaf
has now eclipsed aenima
in the number of times

Lovely weekend in the world o' botz. A most excellent Passover seder with my insane family - just gets sillier and siller every year :) Introduced the martian I'm hangin' with to my mom, which went rully well. *phew* Ate too much, drank alottalotta red wine and walked home in the rain. Watched cartoons and listened to robot-building muzak until the ( Read more... )

mid-afternoon bendy time...
yum yum yum!
i feel like an overcooked noodle :)

Man, I feel friggin' fantastic! Decompression time good. Very very good! Finding myself yesterday with the first leisurely afternoon I've had in months, I wandered off to the park to lay in the grass, listen to the birdies and catch up on my offline journal writing. Spent a few hours lying in the sun, tripping out on the surreality of graduation ( Read more... )

I JUST FINISHED WRITING MY FINAL UNDERGRADUATE EXAM.

I will now head home to take the best nap of my entire life and then hop back downtown this evening for a sweaty and delirious yoga class... lol, celebrating in true botz-style! I feel as though Atlas has taken the globe back from atop my shoulders and replaced it with a ( Read more... )

too much chocolate n' coffee and crazy pranayama exercises have made me insane. i'm totally hyper and kinda bummed out cuz i've got so much work to do, and so little motivation and i'm distracted by boyisms and kimba's havin' boy issues and the phone keeps ringin' and my stereo keeps on churnin' out kyuss and my internal robot keeps malfunctioning ( Read more... )

SERENITY NOW, INSANITY LATER.
"I don't think it works if you yell it."I am wavering between excitement and panic at the dwindling number of days between now and my final exam. The panic is merely because I am unprepared for finals, and have a unreasonable amount of work to do still, despite my ridiculous lack of motivation and horribly distracted ( Read more... )
